Melissa, My deepest condolences to you. Your mother was a wonderful, kind hearted person. She loved you dearly and spoke of you often. I had the pleasure of being her nurse and even during the darkest days, she was gentle and concern for others. She left a lasting impression on me and I will remember her fondly. May God bless you richly and know God has welcomed Susan to her heavenly home.

Stan, what a beautiful and thoughtful reflection on Susan's life. I have such fond memories of growing up with you and Susan at Crooks, and of course your parents were a special presence in my life as well. Susan would often call the church between services when my dad was the Sunday School Treasurer, and he always enjoyed chatting with her. I pray that you are comforted by her new found freedom.

I was just thinking of her the other day. So sorry she is gone. My sympathy to her family.

We knew Susan because Melissa and our daughter, Sarah, went to the same babysitter, Belinda, when they were small. They both became friends. Susan was always so kind and caring to everyone. We realized that I worked with her father at NWS Yorktown and he, too, was kind and caring for everyone.
