Sue and I met on Facebook through our mutual love of ferrets. We shared many conversations over the years about anything and everything. Her laugh was contagious and we would laugh about some of the silliest things, often forgetting what we were laughing about by the time we were able to stop. How I miss that laugh already. We also shared heartbreaks, both of us losing ferrets and other animals that we dearly loved. She was there for me when my husband passed, whether I needed to talk about him or just have a good cry. She had the kindest, biggest, most caring heart, especially for animals, her family and friends. Sue would send me a box of petit fours for Christmas every year knowing I had a sweet tooth that wouldn't be denied. I'll never have another petit four without thinking of her. I wish we had been able to meet in person but it wasn't meant to be. I am glad, though, that we talked and got to know each other that way and she'll always be a friend I'll remember and think of with much love. Rest in peace Sue. I love and miss you but I know Frookie and your other babies were waiting for you and are once again in your arms and I can just imagine your huge smile at seeing them all again. My condolences to Sue's family and friends. She was a special lady and is and always will be deeply missed. God bless.
