I met Sue at Brookdale West Bay many yrs ago. I would call to invite her and Bill to events. She was always excited to get my calls and invitations. She loved to chat and was always sweet to ask about my family as well. Our friendship continued after I left Weat Bay. The four of us would enjoy meals, stories and laughs together. She loved sharing about the wildlife in their yard followed by photos and videos. Sue had a huge heart. I always enjoyed our chats and love for Rom Giorgio music . Chuck and I will greatly miss Sue. So happy to have known you!

Sue was a wonderful sister. She was 3 years older than me and was my very
first best friend. Sue loved to laugh and was a very sweet person.
I will miss our conversations and I miss her very much already.
I Love you "Budge"
