Sue, you have been such a beautiful influence in my life. In the time I have known you we were such good friends. You were the one to cheer me up, you were the one to write me a poem, never complaining and always smiling. I love you Sue. Huey, I love you too for all that you did for my friend, Sue. May God be with you during this time of sorrow.

Susan will surely be missed, but not forgotten. Her energy and spark for life gave me much pleasure after my wife died, and helped me get back on my feet. Hopefully I can do the same for Huey. Huey and Susan are great people and deserved more. Love to both of you. Frank
