This makes me very sad. I am so sorry and my thoughts are with Sue's family. She was my best friend in high school. We met a couple of times after high school but then lost touch. Sue Schumm and Sue Shew - homeroom buds and I will never forget our fun times . . . we laughed so much! I lived on Welwyn and Maple and came over to the house on Cora many times. Sue took such good care of the younger kids. And Bobby was just a tyke. Rest peacefully, Sue. . . . . .

I am so sorry to just learn of Sue's passing. I worked with her at Xerox beginning in 1971. She was funny and kind and patient with a girl who had a lot to learn. What a sense of humor and wit. I also grew up 3 blocks from their home on Cora St. A lovely family. God Bless.

I had such a good visit with Aunt Carol and Sue a couple years ago. Was very sorry at this news. She was a part of my life while I was growing up and have good memories. I am sure our parents are holding her now.
