I am so sad to hear about Sue's passing. We were good friends in high school. She was always so sweet, funny and fun to hang around with. I've moved away from Manistee many years ago but we'd keep in touch mostly at Christmas time with cards/letters. If she was in pain, she isn't anymore and I'm sure having a good time up in heaven. Probably hanging with Teresa, one of our best friends. She will be sorely missed.

Susan was a special person. We will remember her for her kindness toward our children. It was inspiring to see the love and care Susans's siblings gave her. We are sorry for the family's loss.
