Hi my sincere sympathies. I worked closely with Sue Daughters at The Ken Blanchard Companies and remember so many great talks, laughs and her genuine being! She had such a kind heart and so very special to so many people. I can still hear her contagious laugh and remember that beautiful smile. Sally

Sue Daughters enriched my life with her amazing friendship. It formed when we worked together at Hunter Industries and remained intact long afterward. She was thoughtful, generous, and her always brilliant curious mind was constantly inquiring, learning, sharing information and trying to help others through her amazing research skills. She was always finding fun activities to do and explore and introduced me to things like local musicians, great hiking spots and Pageant of the Masters in Laguna Beach. We spent a lot of time walking those trails at Daly Ranch while providing a listening ear for each other which helped us both through our individual challenges. She was always there to support the good times and the hard times. I miss my long-time friend.

I will miss my generous, one-of-a-kind friend. Sue was my longtime office mate at Blanchard. We shared countless laughs and hugs over the years. I was delighted when she bought a house just three minutes from mine. We shared a passion for gardening and my yard is filled with ornaments she gave me over the years. How I cherish them! Sue and I loved to pal around with our dear friend Renee (see photo). I especially loved Sue's no-nonsense personality and her infectious laugh. Wherever you are, Sue, my love is with you!

Sue was always happy to see me. Growing up "going to Marks house" was a near daily thing and Sue was always welcoming. As Mark and I grew to be adults Sue always greeted me with a smile and often called me son.
