Our thoughts and prayers are with Sue's family. She was such a nice person and could do, and did about everything to help folks. Our thanks to her for being secretary and treasurer and go to person for so many years for the Sharon Hills Road BBQ, which began about 1946 to honor the boys on the street that returned from the war.

I am so sorry to hear about cousin Susie. She was so animated and had such a big heart! I have so many great memories of her trip to St. Louis for Dad's 80th birthday! We had such a terrific time. Peace to you and your family!

I am surprised to learn of Suzanne's passing and am sorry to hear this. I went to high school with her in Dallas, Hillcrest High School, Class of 1953. I had not heard from her in years, and I picked up the phone to call her today and learned that her phone was disconnected. She had no email, so it was difficult to keep in touch. Sue always had a great sense of humor. I know that she will be missed by her friends and relatives. I send her and her family much love and thanks for her life. [email protected].
