I'm so sorry for the loss of your beloved wife, mom, grandma and daughter. She touched so many lives as a friend, coach, co-worker and choir member. She will always be remembered for her big heart, beautiful smile and love of Mickey Mouse.

I've thought about Suzy many times over the last 45 years. I grew up down the street from the Hermanns, and always think of them first when I think of my childhood friends. It seems she had a wonderful life, and I mourn that it was cut so short, as was Rick's. My thoughts are with the family. always. Billy H.
