I worked with Sue at Appleton Extended Care way back when. She was a blast to work with and had such a great sense of humor. We also watched baseball games with her grandson and my son playing. Later I worked with her daughter, Deb, at Thrivent, another great lady who had that same wonderful sense of humor. Sue's family was her everything, and she loved them fiercely. I believe she is having some beautiful reunions with her loved ones who have gone before her. I'm sending my sincere condolences to her family and friends on the loss of an extraordinary woman.
