So sorry to Catherine Power Pyle and Dr. Power as just learning about death of your mother. Used to know Susan when we lived in Jonesboro years ago and kept up with each other many years until past few years when lost track of her.
Tried to find out where she was and couldn't so
now know she'd been ill awhile, right? Please,
Catherine, accept my condolences and do hope
you and your beautiful family are doing well.
If you can please send an update to email below. Would love to see a pic of you and your family. Renee has 2 children and has cared for Michelle's daughter past 12 years.
Again, so sorry to learn of this so late but we happened to open the Jonesboro Sun to check on tornadoes there and your mother's obit appeared mysteriously. Blessings and peace, Jenny Russell

Susan Power was first my teacher and then also one I counted as a friend. We did not always see eye to eye on things, but I did so enjoy discussing politics with her. She was a good poli-sci professor.
