She´d been on my mind recently. I had no idea she had passed away. Suzanne was a kind, loving and devout role model and friend. Her laughter and spirit will be with me always. Thanks, Suzanne, for always saving a spot for me near you and Richard at noon mass. Much love to your family.

Aunt Sue was a brilliant and loving woman. Her love for everyday people, her encouragement to family and others, her uplifting laughter and her wisdom for life will be forever missed by each of us.

We are thankful for the times we once were able to spend with her.

Our love and prayers are with you all and may God bless you with his divine comfort.

Grace & Peace,
Michelle and Family
