I am so sorry for the lost of your dear loved one. It's comforting to know that God cares for all of us and losing a loved one is something we cannot get used to. The Bible gives us hope that one day we can see our dear loved one again. On behalf of all mankind Jesus surrender his soul for many. John 15:13 says “No one has love greater than this, that someone should surrender his soul on behalf of his friends.” Truly I am sorry to hear of the loss of your dear loved one and I hope these few words will bring you comfort and hope.

Please accept my deepest sympathies. I have known Sue for years, and most recently served at the Wayside Restaurant with her last winter. Sue's beautiful daughter also taught my girl dance for years. Sue truly was "good people", always so warm and fun. Sue's beautiful trademark smile would only brighten at the mention of her children -- her love for them became almost tangible. Sue .. thanks for making me laugh. Your family is in my prayers, may God Bless you all.

Gary and Family--My thoughts and prayers are with you during this most difficult time. I remember Sue from growing up in Williamstown, waiting on us at the Wayside with a "big smile" and coming to the Canadian Club. Gary if there is anything "The Canadian Club Crew" can do please let us know.

Sue was a beautiful person inside and out. I first met her and her sister Wanda when we were catering for Gus' many years ago. I often ran into her at the water where she loved to be, soaking up the sun and loving life. Heaven now has a wonderful lady that will make the sun shine down on all of us. God bless

There isn't anything we could say, or do that would make anyone feel better in circumstances such as these. The best we can do is to think back on the memories that Sue left for us.
To all of you, if there is anything you need. No matter how trivial it may seem. Please call us. Especially you Bernie. You're like a son to us. Our thoughts, and prayers are with you all. God bless.

Chantel and family,
I wish so much that I had had the honor of knowing your mom. Seeing and knowing what a wondrous job she did of raising the sweetest, caring daughter I know speaks volumes. I love you, 'Aunt' Karen

Sue and I were attached at the hip for quite sometime during high school. She was lots of fun with never ending energy. I will never forget all the walking we did, sharing our thoughts on boys, school, and all the other things that were happening to us at the time.
She was a gentle soul with a positive outlook on life.
I learned of her passing while I was celebrating my 45th birthday. My thoughts and prayers are with her family and dear friends. Sue was a very special girl and her beautiful smile will always be with me.

Sue touched our hearts with her wonderful and unique personality. My prayers are with all her family at this difficult and sorrow filled time.
