I have fond memories of the time I met and visited Susan in her home in Marshfield, MA. She was very gracious and welcoming towards me. We shared lots of laughs and a wonderful meal, which she had so lovingly prepared for the occasion.
Please accept my sincere condolences for your loss.

To my dear sister,
Yesterday we laid you to rest, and my heart is heavy with sorrow. As I gaze upon the Easter Peace Lily you gifted me, now in full bloom, I can´t help but see it as a joyful sign from you.
You always laughed when I called you my favorite sister, knowing you were my only sister. That made our bond all the more special.
I cherish the memories of us huddled together in front of our first television set, captivated by the adventures of Roy Rogers and Dale Evans. Their closing theme "Happy trails to you until we meet again," echos in my heart, a promise of our reunion one day.
With all my love,
Your devoted sister

My name is Brittany. I am Ellen's granddaughter. Sue was such a caring and amazing person. She has meant a lot to my family. She was also such a great friend to my nana. I am glad my nana had her as a close friend. I'm unfortunately not able to come to the service. My thoughts and condolences go out to Sue's family. You all meant the world to her. Whenever I saw Sue, she would always mention her family
