Sue,

You were a great friend to my aunt and I have many fond memories of you while growing up. Thank you for being such a wonderful and kind person and for hosting my family for a beach trip in Naples. (My kids still talk about the weird creatures they found in the water...lol). I know you had a long battle and you fought it bravely. May you rest easy now. Please give a big kiss to uncle Dave, David and my sister.

I am honored to have worked with her on many GHS Reunions, We will surely miss her. Our sympathy, thoughts and prayers are with Paul and Lisa and Robert. May she rest in peace.
