My prayers and sympathy to Sue's family and to all the people she touched by her love at St. Augustine's parish. Sue was God's gift to me for 26 years. Sue had made no plans for her retirement, but God had a great plan for her, which she accepted with the words, "May God's will be done." Her one sadness was leaving her family. I pray Sue is enjoying God's eternal embrace. Sue, may you rest in peace from your busy life spent for others and for God.
Your friend,
Sister Kathleen Reynolds, CCVI

Prayers to Sue's family and all she touched while she was amongst us for such a short time. Father Bob was correct: God truly had plans for her retirement. I believe He's keeping her busy right beside him, now. Prayers for all of you from the Fullers.

Sue was a light from heaven for me. I worked with her at Women &Children's Free Restaurant for almost 10 years. He love and concern for the ladies and children there was constant and based in her faith. A life lived so well...our world has lost a beautiful lady.
