    I just found out about Sue's falling asleep in the Lord, and want to express my condolences. It has been a long time since we rode to church with her, almost 40 years or so, but I remember her picking me up to go to church so many years ago, and her gracious hospitality during those years. Our church was really like a small family where everyone helped one another and that was a very unique experience. May her memory be eternal, and may the Lord grant peace to her family for their great loss.

    I have so many wonderful memories of Aunt Sue. She personified elegance and "class." She was warm and funny, and I enjoyed the time spent with her. She will be missed.
