Da, I am so sorry. Sue will be missed by so many. I will never forget her little bag of ear rings she carried in case she forgot or ran out of time to put them on. She made the best spiced tea I have ever had. I could go on and on about my sweet friend.Praying for you all in the days to come.

Sue was my first friend when we moved to the Wye and saw me through both my pregnancies with you and she becoming Becky's godparents. I will never forget her and what her friendship means to me. Sending love and prayers to you and the family.
