I can’t express how sorry we are for your loss. Although we haven’t seen Susan much in too many years, our memories of her, and all of you, are vivid. We are thinking of you.
Much Love,
Kathleen
Susan was more alive in the throes of cancer than many ‘healthy’ people I encounter every day. I will miss having her physical presence in my life, but her joyful encouragement will remain, I’m sure.
I am so sorry to hear about Susan. I’ve known her since I can remember. We played together as children, took dance and performed together and were cheerleaders for the PHS Bobcats in the ’60’s. I am so glad I got to see her at the reunion last summer. My deepest sympathy to her family.
My deepest sympathies to the family. I never met Susan in person but worked with her over the phone and via email in her role as administrator for the Tuxedo Park Homeowners Association. I was always in awe of her positive attitude in the midst of her struggles. She will remain an inspiration of how to live even in the darkest moments. My condolences to the family.
Sincere condolences for your loss. May God comfort you during this difficult time.
