I worked with Susan during my years with Bellcore in San Ramon, California. Susan was a pleasure to work with. We worked closely together while Bellcore developed its presence in California. We couldn't have done it without her. She'll be remembered as a great co-worker, but a better friend.
Our thoughts and prayers go out to Dale and his family.
Sincerely,
Kevin and Florence Swan

She was truly loved by her family and friends, and, although too soon, has gone on ahead to a place where there is no more sickness or pain. May God now keep her safe.

As a friend of Susan Peterson and as the Coordinator for the Reach to Recovery Program of The American Cancer Society, I want to send my deepest condolences to the entire family. She was spoken of with such love and admiration by her niece Susie that I felt as though I knew her. I know that she suffered and that she suffers no more.
God Bless her and all of the family.
