Suzanne was loved by everyone in our high school class. She was a warm and kind person. She was my classmate from 1st grade through graduation. Her smile will stay in my memory. May God grant you peace and comfort in the knowledge that we will meet again.

Mark my friend Nancy just told me that Suzanne had recently passed away. I am so sorry to hear that and will pray for you and your family. I will always remember her and you and how much Buddy loved coming out there and am grateful for you both for taking care of my animals during the time I was leaving Soldotna for New Mexico. I am very sorry for your loss.

Hello Mark, We are so sorry to hear about Suzanne. She was such a lovely lady. It is really coincidental, Jose passed the day before, Feb 7. I want to believe they greeted each other in Heaven. Chuck and I will try to stop in and say hello when we are in your area. You will be in our thoughts and prayers.

I was so sorry to hear about Suzanne. I always enjoyed visiting with her when we dropped off our English Bulldog, Dawg. I believe that she really cared for all the dogs that were lucky enough to be boarded at the kennel.
