Aunt Sue was almost like a second mother to me. Her son, J.T. and I are near in age and would play and explore together. I will almost remember Aunt Sue's brilliant smile and kind advice and guidance. I miss her very much and I'm sorry I couldn't get to see her before she left this earth behind. But I know I will see her again when my time comes.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you during this sad time.
In Christ,
