To the Kareofelas family, my deep-felt condolences. I remember working with Sue years ago in the School of Medicine. She and Dr. Pappagianis were quite the team.

I was so saddened to see that Sue has passed away. Sue was my babysitter when I was young. I remember her and I "reading" the Little Golden Books. I had some of them memorized from hearing them so often. The Kareofelas family lived near us back then. I got a chance to run into her with her dad as an adult at the Woodland High School plays years ago.
My condolences to all her family

Dear Jean & family,
I only met your sister once, many years ago while I lived nearby.
My heart hurts for your loss, I know you & know how hard this has to be for your sweet, kind heart. My thoughts & prayers are with each of you.
