Steve and family,
I am truly saddened to hear of Susan’s passing.
I wish that I had the words of comfort. I have walked where all of you are currently walking and it is not something that I wish bbn on anyone.
Although many years have passed, I have NEVER stopped thinking of you Steve, as well as Susan.
My love for the BOTH of you is and will forever be an undying love.
There have been way to many years passed without us seeing each other.
Only our HEAVENLY FATHER can give you the grace and comfort that you all will need to get through the upcoming days, months, even years. But I hope that all of you reach out to your loved ones (me included) when you you need a listening ear or a comforting voice or shoulder.
Again, Steve…(and family)….
I love you so very much.
I will say many prayers for you and your family.
With much love and sadness….
Wow so sorry to hear this..I worked with Susan at Lapetite Ecole and have stayed in touch with her through Face book…prayers for you all🙏
Thank you Rhonda
I met Susan at North Jackson Elementary School we we’re both older Mom’s so we clicked right away. Our kids Karleigh & Sarah became BFF’S in kindergarten right off the bat. I enjoyed spending time with Susan. In 3rd grade Karleigh & Sarah we’re separated they didn’t have any classes together. The girls were having a hard time being separated. Susan & I communicated through texting or Facebook to get these girls together. We met at McDonald’s after school both girls were so excited. Susan & I have stayed in contact through Facebook since we moved. One thing I know she loved her family and the Bulldog’s. I will miss her.❤️
I went to Middle and High schools with Susan. She was always smiling and spunky. She had a very kind soul with a big, loving heart. We lost touch after graduation. We reconnected on Facebook a number of years ago and I have enjoyed her posts, watching her family grow in the photos she posted and her all around happiness and love towards her family and friends.
Susan, you will be missed by so many.
Thoughts and prayers for her friends and family.
Love you my dear, dear friend.
Good bye my friend I always will remember you.
Dear Susan , I love you my little sister , with all my heart!!!! I will really miss you!!!! I can’t believe you are gone and so soon! You are in the very best of hands now – as mom always said!!!! Tell mom and daddy hello up there ,and I look forward to seeing you again one day !!!!!!With much love, Robin🥰 xoxoxo
I’ve known Susan since our Poe Intermediate days. We became life-long friends. Susan had a big heart and always thought of others before herself. She loved her husband, daughters, and grandchildren…They were her life. Susan and I had not seen each other for the last several years, but kept in touch. Whenever we would talk on the phone it was like no time had passed. I will miss you so much Susan! As we used to say to each other…”Love you and missus you”…always, my friend.
My wife, my friend and the mother of our children I knew when I first saw you on the plane 30 years ago that you were the one. Just as you knew even before we had our first date by the fact I stayed on the phone with you all night while you were watching your neighbors children just to keep you calm because you had gotten spooked by noises outside. We made so many great memories together and still had more to make, I still cannot believe you are gone it is so hard to believe. I will always and forever love you.
Steve, I was so sad to just now hear about Susan. I hope your family and friends nearby are wrapping you and your girls in love and helping you all. Susan was so sweet and feeling and energetic and I enjoyed working with her at Oxford oh so many years ago now! I am praying for you and your children and grand babies.
