Sue Carr Obituary
May 9, 1957 - June 17, 2025
Sue Fisher Carr, a beloved member of the Carr and Fisher/Unger/Linas family, passed away June 17, 2025 at the age of 68 after a valiant battle with pancreatic cancer. Sue grew up in Richmond and went to Thomas Jefferson High School. She attended Florida State University for her undergraduate degree and then earned a Doctor of Pharmacy degree (with honors) from the Massachusetts College of Pharmacy.
Sue was known for her smile, her big heart and warm personality. Her zest for life was contagious. She was devoted to her family and friends and fiercely loved those close to her. Sue will be remembered for her kindness, positive energy, and entrepreneurial spirit. She will be deeply missed by all who had the privilege of knowing her.
Sue worked as a pharmacist in the retail and hospital settings. After a "light bulb moment", she conceptualized a medical device that would revolutionize the medical field and patient care. She spent many years developing and actualizing the production of the device that will very soon impact the lives of millions. The FROG (Filter Removal of Glass) needle recently received FDA approval, which is a monumental achievement in itself and will serve as her lasting legacy.
Sue was preceded in death by her beloved parents, Lawrence and Roberta Fisher, and is survived by her husband Richard Carr, her sons Benjamin and Joshua (Kaitlin), her sister Amy Unger (Don) as well as her nieces Melissa and Leslie.

I was at TJ with Sue. She was a great friend, especially since we were both "height challenged". Each time my '73 class had a reunion, I would ponder about some of those friends that were not in my class and wonder how they were doing and where were they. Now I know where my friend Sue is. May she rest peacefully.

This news makes me incredibly sad. I went to HS with Sue and knew her family through their store in the FAN (where my brother-in-law, Calvin, worked part time.) Sue was always so kind and joyful and happy to engage with friends. Her bubbly personality made me smile just seeing her walk towards me down school halls. I haven´t run into her since TJ but fondly remember her. Condolences to her family.
