My Aunt Susan was such a beautiful person, inside & out.

We had many wonderful adventures at the Art Museum, Westport Play House, Massas and enjoying crepes at a cafe in Soulard. Never a dull moment with her.

Our family gatherings were full of love, laughter, board games, sarcasm and of course an adult beverage or two....
A book was always in her hand. She had the best stories!

She taught me to be loving but fierce & to not care what others think.

I am sure my Dad was waiting at the Gates to harass her about getting there first.
Xxxooo

To my sister-in-law Susan Cox, nee Tighe on her passing on October 5, 2017. My wife, Pat Weiss, nee Tighe, her sister and I will always remember the good times that we used to have when the family had bar-b-ques at mom and dads' home and all the relatives were there and we laughed and played games and also during all the holidays. Susan always liked to go to Massa's restaurant with mom and her sister pat and we had such good times. We had a few drinks and talked to the owner who became a good friend. We also had other friends that we used to go with on cruises together with Susan. Susan loved to play the slot machines and also Susan mother, Mary and her sister Pat,they all went to Las Vegas together. Our love and Memories will keep us going for the rest of our lives until one day meet in Heaven. Susan will be missed by us, her family, and many friends. "God Bless Her". John and Pat Weiss
