I worked with Suha for many years at Blue Cross. I told her once that the first time I saw her I thought she was the most beautiful woman I had ever met. What I haden't realized at that first glance, was that she was as beautiful on the inside as she was on the outside. My sympathy to her loving family. She will be missed by all, but heaven is a better place.

Suha, I never met you in person, but it seems like I have known you for many years. I met you virtually here at Anthem about a year and a half ago working peer to peers together. Suha was such a wonderful, gracious person who loved life and her job and it showed everyday, even when she wasn't feeling her best. You will be missed. My thoughts and prayers to Suha and her family.

As others have stated, she was one in a million and never had a bad word to say about anyone. This beautiful being will never be forgotten in our hearts. Deepest sympathy to her lovely family.

I am so sad and sorry for you loss. Suha was one of the nicest people I have ever met. She always had nothing but kind words for eveyone. Such a classy sincere lady.I am glad I had the opportunity to know her. She will be greatly missed. Until we meet again Suha, I love you. Munir, Musa and Muhannad, may all of your beautiful memories keep her close in your hearts forever.

January 9, 2012

I've known Suha for a very long time, since 1982 to be exact, she was beautiful inside and out. I was always amazed at her composure and the way she reacted to things . I don't believe in all those years she has ever had anything bad to say about anyone, She was as they put it a saint in the nicest meaning of the word. I can't even write about her without crying, I can only imagine how her family feels, but if they read these condolences they will see just how much their mother, wife , sister , aunt , was loved. Rest in peace my friend, God willing we will meet again and my tears and sadness will turn into joy. Love you Susu

January 9, 2012

I worked with Suha at Anthem (as a medical director) and she was a great help to all the physicians she worked with. Always available to help, always cheerful and friendly. Suha was always upbeat even during the early part of her illness when the diagnosis was unknown. It was a pleasure working with such a gracious, delightful and positive person. She was a great assest to Anthem and to all the people she worked with. Her culture showed in her attitude and generousity. We all are better people for knowing this most wonderful woman. My thoughts and prayers go out to all her family at this tragic time.
