I was sorry to hear about Sue. I taught with her at Frairview Jr. High and middle school. She was a great person, and she even trimmed our poodle dog. She influenced a lot of students and teachers in Logansport. Her character was one of my fond memories of my days at Fairview.

I would like to express my heartfelt sympathy to the family for the loss of your dear Sue. I hope that you will find comfort in the words of Jesus at John 5:28, 29 where he promised that the day is coming when he is going to resurrect back to life those in the grave. Until then, it is just like they are sleeping. (John 11:11-13) May your family draw strength from Jehovah, the God of all Comfort.

The community of Logansport, Indiana especially those alumnus of Fairview - like the classmates of my late husband - would like to express our sympathy to Ms. Jones and the Kidd family. Ms.Kidd left her mark on this community and the lives of many students who were inspired by her example and mentoring in the class and in athletics. RIP

I'm so sorry to hear of Sue's passing. Not only I had Miss Kidd as a PE teacher at Fairview Park Jr High but she was also a member of a Church of Christ where we attended. She was a caring gentle soul. May you rest in God's hands.

I was very sorry to hear of Miss Kidds' passing. I had the privilege of having her as a physical education teacher when I attended Fairview Jr. High in Logansport, ,IN, in the mid 70's. Later in life I gained a deep respect & admiration for her love & contributions to Baseball & other sports. My deepest sympathies go out to her family & friends.

I am so sorry to read of Miss Kidd's passing. I had her as a teacher in Logansport and had the best time in her classes. Subconsciously she taught me a lot about dealing with students that I used during my teaching career in that same school building.

The Stephens side of my family and the Kidds were very close. I can remember my grandpa Stephens admired Sue and her baseball achievements the same as I did Mickey Mantle. Sue was always very friendly to everyone she knew.

I always remember Sue telling me when I couldn't do anything she would always say now Bon you can. The most memorable thing I remember that Sue did was when my son passed her and Jones ' s came to the funeral home and there was a line and Sue just walked around everyone there and said that is my kid up there and she needs s hug. I will always cherish the moments that I had spent with Sue, she is a on ed of a kind women and she will be missed alot. Love ya Sue always in my heart.
