To Mary Beth: "I was so sad to hear of Suzanne's death. I know how close you were to her and know that it is going to be a tough go for you getting over this. I hadn't seen Suzanne since my Leaside days but you always gave me an update on her adventures and she certainly did live life to the fullest. Take care and remember the good times ... xox."

Suzanne lived a wonderful life. As a friend she had this wonderful talent that could only have come from the heart – loyal, compassionate, always caring and listening, knowing the things to do or say, to make the problem go away. And though the winds of life caused her to fall to her knees, she had the resilience of spirit to bend but not break, to courageously lift her head and move forward onto the next battle, cause it was in these times the strength of her character shone through. It is easy to be pleasant when life flows by like a stream but a person’s worth is ever so evident when things go wrong.
Her life, her memory and her love will live on in the stories of her kids - Andrew, Brady, and Adrienne; her siblings – Doug and Mary-Beth, and her friends and whenever on some dark lonely point in life - if you listen keenly you will hear the sound, a whisper among the leaves, voice urging you to “be strong and carry on,” cause what lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within.
Her loss is immeasurable not only to her family but to her friends. I am honored and thankful to have known her and had the opportunity to stand and shout yes, she was my friend. To paraphrase Bob, “(A) good friend we lost along the way. Rest easy my friend, your work was indeed good and just.

Suzanne was my big sister, and like all big sisters she knew exactly how to torture me. Nonethess, there is nothing in this world I wouldn't have done for her. She knew this and even took advantage on occasion. She was a free and gentle spirit who hated constraints and loved to colour outside the lines which she did many times. I loved her dearly and will miss her more than anyone can know. I celebrate her remarkable life.
Love forever

Andrew and Adrienne. I am so sorry for your loss. Your mother was an amazing woman, a true fighter, that got everything possible out of her life. Like a cat with nine lives she survived some horrible ordeals, often with a smile on her face. At last she is at peace. Her spirit lives on through you and your families. You have my heartfelt condolences and love in this stressful time.

I came across Suzanne's lovely picture in the newspaper today and was drawn to it. Her obituary makes me wish I had known her. She must have been an incredible spirit. She sounds like a beautiful, wonderful, passionate woman.

I met Suzanne when she was in California showing Adrienne the way to flip off cancer with style and wit. She was hilarious and warm and witty, and all-around inspiring. Adrienne and family, I am so sorry for your loss, and will be thinking of all of you with love.

This is, hands down, the most perfect obituary I have ever read. I just wish it wasn't Suzanne's, a woman whose unstoppable wit would have been her most memorable feature were it not that she was equally sweet, smart, fashionable, and driven. Her jokes were usually delivered in a mumble-y understated tone that added to their hilarity; she gravitated toward the zaniest people in her orbit and became their friend; she threw terrific parties and never sat still. I don't know how many people I've told about a woman who chuckled and gave the bird to more death sentences than I can count. She was way, way more fierce than my mom but in many ways reminded me of her and so stood in her stead more than once when I was living in California. I am heartbroken, all the way through to the bone, that I will not hear her playful insults, see her wry smile, talk to her, enjoy her, again. My love to the family most of all. You guys, your mom and grandmom was one of a kind. But you don't need me to tell you that. Love, Rae.
