My deepest sympathies to all of you; what a tremendous loss. I enjoyed Sue's direct honesty, her ability to be funny without trying, and how comfortable she always made me feel. I had some very good times with Sue. She will be missed by many. I wish you peace.
Sincerely,

To Sue's family even not knowing any of you just wanted to let you know your mother was a great teacher. I was in her Adult Ed. class. She really helped me to get my diploma. Sue influnced me a great deal to go to college and I did, all because of her. I am so sorry for your loss. I always drove by her house on Cass St. and would wave to her often. I am greatly sad of her passing. Heaven has received a great new Angle.
