So sorry to hear of Suzie's death. Her dad and my grandpa were brothers and in earlier times we were all fairly close, but sadly lost touch over the years. Condolences to the family.

I met Suzie and Don less than 2 years ago. When I moved into the neighborhood, Suzie treated me like she had known me forever. She was a very precious lady and will be missed by all that knew her. God Bless you Don and the family. We will keep you in our prayers.

Suzie was my sister in law and she was so very dear to me and Dennis. The moment we met, I fell in love with her! I loved her smile, her funny jokes, and her compassion for others. She will be so missed by us! Go rest high on that mountain, for Suzie your work on earth is done! We will always love you!
