Oh Suzanne it breaks my heart to see your obituary! Your last name was in a novel and it made me wonder what adventure you and Mike were off to these days! You were one of the best bosses I've ever had, bun and all :). Working at Navitas with you and Dan was the best! My heart hurts, I too was a patient at MDA, I so wish you were here to compare war stories. I know you're smiling in heaven, maybe even letting your hair down in a convertible :)

Im so sad to hear about my aunts death. The last time I saw her was when I was 16 years old. Suzanne was very nice to me and I miss her.

So very sorry for your losses. I was 8or 9 yes old when we first met Suzanne during a road trip to Texas. I was so so sick when Don and I arrived.. I don't have many memories of her, except how kind, and caring she was to me. I am 39 now, and had not seen her since, however that one encounter has been imprinted in my mind..
