I lived on rich rd about 4 houses down from where she lived. She would pick me up and we would go “visiting” the kids that were on our Sunday school roll or those who visited church the previous Sunday. She was a blessing. She was a very pretty and classy lady. So sorry for your loss.

Many memories of joint family Thanksgivings, her yummy giblet gravy, warm hugs and just chatting and catching up on my kids and life. Your heart was huge and my family received the gift of her kindness and love for many years.
Jessica, Ronnie, Mr E. And. All family, My prayer is that you know the promise of God as each day begins a new, PS 147:3. He heals the Broken-hearted and Binds up their wounds.
Love Janice( Aunt J) and kids

Jesse and Family: We are so sorry to hear about Sue's passing. We loved Jesse and Sue and have missed them terribly at Covenant Baptist Church in Collierville, TN. She and Jesse both were so much fun to be around.
She is Home with Jesus now.

Sue was one of our large group of 35 first cousins, and my family spent lots of time with her and her four siblings during our childhood . Some of my best memories are time with her. She was bright, beautiful and vivacious and hers and Jessie's love was an example for all of us. Over the years as we all aged, we touched base at reunions, funerals, and at times when we shared things on the phone. She remained a shining light and example for all of us of how a good person can live. I believe she is now with her family enjoying the eternal life promised her through Christ.
