Its hard to believe a year has passed since your going to be with our Heavenly Father, Sue. Youve been on my mind always, as has your children, grandchildren and David. Ill always miss your special sense of humor and kind ways. Every time the Kentucky Derby comes around, I cant help but remember watching it with you on VCR tape, at your Francestown home, with our 4-H group. I heard you sniffling so I turned to look at you and you were crying at the sight of those majestic horses running the race. My sensitive, friend I will never forget you. I love you and miss you a whole lot. Ill see you in Heaven.

David and family, I am so sorry to hear of the passing of Susie. She was a dear friend to me and to all in Francestown. Always lending a helping hand and often volunteering around town. She will be missed.

David and Family,
I am so sad to learn about Susan. She will surely be missed especially at Jenny Lake. Thinking of you all and keeping you in prayers and thoughts at this challenging time.

Dear David and family -
Chris and I were so saddened to read of your loss. You left Amherst when your children were young and moved to Francestown. When we finally moved to Francestown years later, you weren't there much longer before moving to NC.
I hope that you and Susan enjoyed some happy, healthy times during your years there, especially being grandparents. Susan was a special person. You are in our thoughts and prayers during this difficult time. Debbie Rogers
