Sue was one of my very first childhood friends. I was just thinking about her and googled her name. I am so very sorry for her brother Charlie and her children and grandchildren that she passed away at such a young age. I can remember spending some overnights at her house and showing me ribbons (humbly so) for her swimming achievements as a young girl.
