What an absolutely wonderful woman! Though my association was brief --I met her at Avon 1983-1984 working with her in Field Operations, I've never forgotten how welcome she made me feel. I had just moved from California and it was my first job in Illinois. She provided wisdom during very difficult times and how she loved my Gucci bags and accessories! I'm so sorry to hear of her passing and will treasure my brief association with Sue always.
