I would like to extend my deepest sympathy to the entire Potts family.
Sue was a great source of inspiration to everyone and always put other's needs before her own. I know she is watching over all of us and it is comforting to know that I have someone up there on my "side". I will never forget her contagious laugh and great sense of humor (as warped as mine!) Goodbye Suzie... till we meet again, my friend .....
