I love you G so so much. I remember you coming out every Christmas eve then going back home Christmas afternoon. Our late talks, card games, and talking about how to make icing still brings a smile to my face and all the memorys that come along. I miss you so much. Thank you for teaching me so much and being one of my best friends. We would talk for hours and hours about the most random stuff. I will see you again someday. I love you G. Lysybsilym!! You were more than just my grandma <3 <3 Love,Jade xoxoxoxoxoxo

I knew Sue from when she would come into our office with paperwork for Mark Edwards. We enjoyed chatting about our families and she really lit up talking about her grandchildren. She also proudly told me about her mom who was still cooking and hosting holiday gatherings! One thing she never told me was that she graduated from Taft. That was one more thing we had in in common, as I graduated from Taft in 1969!
Everyone in our office was shocked to hear about her passing and we will miss her office visits. Our deepest sympathies to all of you. May all your happy memories of times spent with her keep her alive in your hearts and may the thoughts and prayers of others help you cope with your loss.
