My name is Richard Lufkin I was a teacher assistant at Pleasant View I worked with Susan Wolf in the office She was always pleasant and a good working relationship Sometimes we shared personal stories I went to the Jewish ceremony when her father passed away. I remember on time Susan and the other secretary helped me with a stituation when I had a misunderstanding with the principal. I called her at home a few times after I retired .We talked for a hour.

So very sorry to hear of Sue´s passing from this life. She was the very best secretary that any school or faculty could have. She was the same every day, no matter what was happening. She was also a good friend. At my wedding, she noted the exact time that we were married. Sue truly lived for others.
