Suzi, Merry Lee and I are remembering the good times we have shared with you and your family. Merry Lee remembers being at your house often, getting ready to play softball with you and the Franco Bail Bonds Team. She says there was always good food at your house. Maybe you are catching for some softball team someplace right now.
We hope so. - John and Merry Lee (Young) Dormann

Aunt Suzi, We all love you so very much. All the things you did for each and everyone one of us will forever be in our hearts. After you retired from the county,it was so nice having you come into the office (Franco Bail Bonds) I remember you always saying, "Oh Andrea I better go so you can get your work done" Instead we would sit there and chat away, and end up going to lunch, or even going to Von's your favorite place to shop. Aunt Suzi I have so many wonderful memories the list goes on. Thank you for everything and for being so wonderful to my kids. We Love You Always and forever. Andrea, Dustin & Aryanna

Suzi will be missed. Suzi worked with my Dad and loved him dearly. She would always ask about him whenever we saw her. She was a very kind person. God be with her and say hello to Dad for me.
