Dear Mr. Kirsh,
I am so sorry to hear about Mrs. Kirsh's death. I remember you both from your store and how helpful you were to my family as we came in for whatever reason, especially when buying band shoes.
You are in my prayers.

Sue will be missed so much by her family and many friends. I have so many wonderful memories of our trips w/S&S Travel. Going to Ireland, going out West and the many trips we took brought many smiles to the ladies of the Clover area. Because of Sue and Sarah, many Clover residents saw places that they would never have had the opportunity to visit. Our thoughts and prayers go out to Herb and the family.
