So sorry for your loss. Sue was a good friend during our high school years (Evergreen Park '73) She provided some of my most fond memories from those years working on school plays together.Although we lost touch, I'm so happy to see that she has such a beautiful family. She was a blessing to us all.

I'm so sorry to hear about Susan's home-going. I know that she was truly a blessing to many, and she will always be missed by all indeed. The picture gallery allowed me to take a brief look into her amazing and wonderful life. I could tell how "selfless" she was, and what a very loving person she was.

Although I only knew Sue for a few months at Tinley Court, she became a friend quickly to my mother and me. The day my mother moved in, she was the first resident to welcome her and they sat at the same table for dining. Sue also spear headed a program for the residents to see a movie every week night after dinner in the library. She would give residents choices and if there were any requests, she would try to get it. She was very approachable and made friends quickly. Everyone knew of her, enjoyed her boundless energy, love of interacting with others, and helping anyone in need of help. She never had a problem striking up a conversation with anyone she met. Although she was dealing with her own illness, she would never let her spirit down and wouldn't complain. She was a kind person, giving, sharing, enthusiast, a story teller, and just plan fun to be around. We loved her laugh, it was so contagious. She was an Angel around us at Tinley Court and now is our Angel in Heaven, free of any human illness or pain. God Bless you Sue for being a part of our lives, even if it was only for these past few months. Your friendship was cherished and you shall never be forgotten.
Love, Billie and Barbara
