Bro. Tim, Laura Beth, Sara Lynn, and families,
I am so sorry to hear about Suzanne. Such a wonderful lady to all
she encountered. It was a privilege to teach with her at HES. You were also great neighbors to Mama and Daddy when you were at Union Christian. May God give you his comfort and peace during
This difficult time.

My sincere condolences to your family. Mrs. Dennis was my third grade teacher in the 1980s. She was so very kind, and I have very fond memories of her.

Such a wonderful person. I admired how the children at soccer games would run up to Mrs Dennis where she called them by name and had a big hug for each of them. Her love for children is one of many testimonies that showed what a loving Christian lady she was. My prayers go up to the family.

We were on the same teaching team at Hodgenville Elementary. Always smiling and always positive. Our loss is Heaven's gain. We've lost the best and Heaven gained a bright, bright star! Wow, what a woman.
