Susie was a very special lady! We spent a lot of time together until Covid hit and then she got sick and we didn´t spent as much time together! I had been sick off and on myself and gradually got worse and have been in and out of the hospital several times myself and I hadn´t seen her in a while! She was never far from my thoughts and I look forward to the day when we will meet up at the foot of the throne! I love you Susie Conrad!
