It has been a true pleasure to be Susie's friend and companion this last year. Even on the hard days, she always greeted me with a genuine, welcoming smile. Thank you Susie, for your kindness, generosity, and all of the giggles.
Susie's love for her sons was palpable and unwavering. What a gift that is.
Troy, James, family and friends; I am profoundly sorry for, and deeply feel your loss.
Sincerest condolences,
Laura Ouellette
