Susan was my class mate in Oxford. I am sorry I did not know until Sunday afternoon of her death. I would have sent flowers from the Class of 66. Susan was always a precious, sweet person. I lost my twin sister, Mary Jackson Taylor, of Florence, MS at the age of 32 to breast cancer. The loss is great, but God gives us the strength we need to make it through. My comfort is in knowing Mary is in a wonderful place, no longer suffering, and that I will be with her some day for eternity.
My prayers are with you. Please give Ken my sympathy. I knew their parents well.

Susan was a a close friend of mine growing up on Sively Street in Oxford. I'm so sorry to hear about her passing.Even though we all know that she has gone to a better place, I know many will miss her.

It seems like only yesterday I was in Oxford with Susan, Rivers, Clancy, Lee and Jody going to an Ole Miss game. I'm certainly glad I had the opportunity to not only know your mother but to have spent some time (if only brief) with Susan and all 3 of her children. The Bible tell us, "though we weep through the night, joy will come in the morning." Susan Logan's incredible life force brought us all joy in the morning.

Susan was a great friend. I had so hoped to see her last summer at our class reunion. I didn't even realize she had been ill or would have made an effort to see her at home.
