What a pleasure to remember Sue Ellen each year. She was so full of life and love. Rest in peace. Nancy & Paul Cassisi

Suellen..I cant believe it's been 6 years...you were an inspiration to me and such a great friend. I hope your keeping everyone straight up there...because you sure are missed down here.

Another year has gone by since you have passed. Happy Heavenly Easter Suellen. We miss your laughter every day!

Thinking of my good friend. Hard to believe it has been five years already. It seems just yesterday your laughter filled the Elks lodge. You are missed very much.

Thinking of Suellen and family. All our love and thanks for the wonderful memories, love, and laughs. Our prayers are with all the family.

Happy Birthday 2021 Suellen. Love and miss you and Mike. Hope you are still laughing together in Heaven. 

Happy Birthday Suellen. Hope you and Mike are having a ball, celebrating your Special Day, with lots of love and laughter. Glad you are together again. We miss you both alot.

Our thoughts and prayers are with all the family, who are still missing their dear Suellen. We hope that time has begun to ease the pain, and the good memories of time spent together, have replaced past tears with present smiles. Love you Tamara. Hugs to you and Mike. She is always with you, in your hearts.

Miss my friend, hard to believe it has been three years already. I think of you often. Every time I think of you laughing and your loud laugh. It makes me smile and laugh. Rest in peace Suellen.

Remembering you today and all the super times we had. Loved you, your spirit, your complete honesty and most of all your love for life & laughter. Miss you gal so very much! Love always.

Susie Q. I hope you are having a fabulous birthday and I know that I can hear your laughter today. I miss you so much dear friend and think of you daily. Love you! Judy

Susie Q, hard to believe it has been 2 yrs. already. Seems like I just talked to you yesterday. The Elks installation was in Johnstown on Sat. Night and I could feel your presence all during the ceremony. We mentioned how much more fun it had been when you were there with your joyous laughter. Missing you so very much!

I think of you almost every day Sue. My Facebook memories are always filled with comments from you. Wish we could share a laugh together today or go on one of those photo trips we talked about going on. I hope your family is finding some comfort these days without your larger than life presence. Miss you friend!!

Missing you bunches whole lot on this 2nd year of life without you!!! You left us too soon but your laughter will be forever in our hearts .. my dearest mother my you be at peace with the lord til we meet again love and miss you

Can't believe it's been 2 long years that you've been gone. Missing you always and never forgetting you my dear friend. Thoughts of you everyday as I pass the Elks Lodge. Remembering all the good times. Love you Suellen.

Happy (Heavenly) Birthday Suellen. Every time we see your beautiful daughter, Tamara, we think of you, because she inherited your bright eyes and loving personality. Thanks for all you did, to make her the person she is today. We all miss you.

Still missed and still in my heart.
I know you are in a better place with our Lord!
Love you always!

Suellen was a trailblazer!  She was the first female Elk in our West Central district. And she set a standard for all Elks! I miss her smile and her laugh and all her contributions to make the Elks a better organization!

Mark & I met Suellen through the Elks and we connected to her immediately. She was always laughing and having a good time. The way life should be. Our sincere sympathy to the Shick family for their loss. Her passing leaves a big empty space in our lives.

My sister Judy and I want to express our deepest sympathy to the Shick family. Our families friendship goes back several generations.
However, we got to know Suellen so well through the Elks. It was certainly our pleasure to have known her and to have been a part of the many events and activities that she spearheaded.

Suellen gave so much of herself to everything she touched. And she left her mark on so many people. She was one of a kind. Judy and I feel honored to have been able to call her a friend.

If there's an Elks Lodge in Heaven, I know Suellen will be the lady in charge...lining up volunteers, cheering up the veterans, and scheduling more events.

Suellen, you will be missed, but you will never be forgotten

I met Suellen through the Elks. She left me with wonderful memories of some really good times. We ran Sunday nite Bingo together, bus trips to Johnstown Elks, golf tournaments, and so much more. Her laughter and love for life were contagious, always busy always doing for others. I will forever hold you dear to my heart. I will miss you my friend. Till we meet again.

Our family will always remember Suellen fondly, she always asked about our daughters and especially during the Elk's Hoop Shoot that our daughters did for 4 years. We loved the pictures she would take and share with us. I especially enjoyed her post on Facebook about our family and all of our crazy activities. RIP Suellen

I met Suellen when I joined the Elks. I found her to be a caring and loving person. She truly cared about others and showed it in her everyday life. RIP Suellen you will be missed.

I immediately took to Suellen when we met nearly 40 years ago. At first, that big laugh took me by surprise, but boy it grew on you! She never let you down when needed. A true indicator of her commitments were her dedication to the Elks, and our Veterans. I always said she peed purple! There were ups and downs for sure, but she hung in there, regardless. That was how deep her dedication ran.
Every time I see Hello Kitty, I will laugh and think about our carrying on over that damn kitty!
I still cannot wrap my mind around this all. Her absence will be evident in so many lives. But, till we meet again, I will hold on to the memories.
And, I will use that red pen, Suellen! Only we know that one!

I love and miss you my friend. :(

Love, The Brat

I am not much for words but all I can say is we shall meet we shall miss her and will be a vacant chair God bless Sue Ellen and all her family and friends RIP"

I am not much for words but all I can say is we shall meet we shall miss her and will be a vacant chair God bless Sue Ellen and all her family and friends RIP"

I admired the dedication, devotion and passion Suellen had as a volunteer and member of various organizations. I will miss her laughter and wicked sense of humor. RIP.

I knew Sue from Marion Center High School, same grade as I but I didn't get to know her well as we were taking different courses. I just want to offer my condolences and my expression of sympathy to Sue's family and friends. She passed too young but God has a plan for all of us. Lord God, help us to endure.

John, my deepest sympathy is sent with the hope that as time goes by cherished memories will help bring you inner peace.  May the memories that mean the most to you live forever in your heart. Suellen was such a fun loving person, she and her laughter will surely be missed by all who knew her.

To Tamara and Mike: We may not have known your mother, but we can tell that she was a wonderful woman by the daughter she has raised. We love you and our hearts and prayers continue to be with you during this time. Love Bonnie and Clyde (aka SC mom and dad)

Suellen had a way of making every situation a little bit better! Her smile and laughter was contagious! She helped me through some tough times. Love you Suellen!!

When I joined the Elks, it was Sue who I first met, and I heard her laugh before I actually saw her. Here's to Sue, who remembered everything and laughed with everyone! God Bless.

Tom and I had a lot of fun with Suellen and you over the past years. We had our share of troubles too, but in this time of sorrow, we send you our deepest sympathy and love. We are still in FL but will see you soon.

Suellen had probably the largest heart and most infectious laugh of anyone I ever met. The Elks and veterans have lost a strong crusader and tireless worker for their causes. She will be sorely missed by many friends and those whose lives she touched. My sympathy to John and her entire family.

suellen was such a kind spirit. If she liked you ,you never had to worry but don't make her mad. I always told her I am soooo glad you are my friend. I cut her long hair off at her request. She wanted to surprise john and that she did. He thanked me for making his wife so beautiful. Suellen you will be greatly missed

I'm sad to here of her passing. I will always remember how much she liked when I sang Elvis songs, always had a smile on her face.
God Bless
Elvis

Suellen, your laughter was always heard before you were seen. It can never be replaced or copied. It was a joyful sound never to be forgotten. You served the Indiana Elks in so many ways for so many years and Rick & I always appreciated your dedication. Even if we didn't have a personal conversation while we were at the Elks, before you left you always said "It's been great talking with you!" Rest in peace friend.

I will always remember Suellen for her dedication to the Elks. She always went above and beyond, giving her all to each project. She will be missed!

Suellen was my mother in law but she was much more, too. We were both loud with original laughs. She would make me laugh ALL the time. I love her much. She was always honest and said it as she saw it and I respected her for that. Her heart was big and she was a loyal friend. I will miss her very much. But when I look at Tammy I will, at times, allow myself to see Suellen (not hard to do for sure)!

When I heard the news of Aunt Sue's passing, my heart was utterly broken in two. Being in Houston, we never got to "hang out", but her precious sense of humor and spunky personality kept me on my toes and smiling when connected on social media. I looked forward to our "chats" and almost daily bantering or commenting on some silly thing or another. May God welcome you into his loving arms and I know that, now, you are with Bud and the ancestors who we loved so much. Rest in peace, dear Auntie. Thank you for being a part of my life even though over the miles. My heartfelt prayers to Uncle John and the family.

Wendell was a life member of the Lodge and when he died, Suellen provided me with a courtesy membership card so that I could still enjoy Bar Bingo or whatever. While wintering in AZ, I used it at the Apache Junction Elks so that Willadene,another widow, and I could have dinner there. We had a drink to her. And she never had to experience being a widow. Bless her then and her family now.

Suellen you were such a kind caring person! You were what made the Elks club enjoyable...Will sure miss chatting with you...You sure earned your angel wings...

I met Suellen about 11 yrs ago & we had been friends ever since ! She was a great mentor when it came to guiding me through the rules & regs of the Elks. I learned so much from her. I will miss u my friend.....Till we meet again!!!!

We did not know you long but we love your sense of humor and honesty. We see your wit, humor, and even your sarcasm every day in your daughter. Your legacy will live on in those that you have loved and those that you have helped. The mark you have left on this world will not be forgotten and we will cherish every moment we had with you. From Steve & Danni Phillips

Suellen and I disagreed on politics and many, many things. But, we always laughed at our disagreements. I think the only things we agreed on were support for veterans, baseball, and anchovy pizza. We were supposed to share an anchovy pizza, but never got around to it. Lesson learned! Where ever you are Suellen, save me a slice.

Suellen was a true friend in every sense of the word. I felt as if we were family and I loved her very much. She was a bright light in this dark world and she always understood me. I admired Suellen for her strength and her ability to push forward through her tough times in her life. She was like a second mother to me and I will miss her more that words can express. Suellen will always be a part of me and I will always keep her in my heart. I love you Suellen and I know you are with the Lord and all his glory. xoxoxo

I have known Suellen most of my life. She was an outstanding photographer and was always the life of the party. Her laugh was infectious. Rest In Peace, and give my dad (Wally) a kiss for me. I'm sure you two will stir things up! My deepest condolences to John and the family. ❤️ You will be missed always!

Suellen was many things to many people. Most of all she was the best kind of friend that anyone could ever ask for. She had one of the biggest hearts that I have ever found in a person. She always called me her adopted son, and my wife Toni her adopted daughter, and we called her our second mom. Suellen was one incredible lady and will leave a large void in so many peoples lives now that she is gone from his world. She was known to so so many people though her charitable deeds that she worked so hard on for all the years I have known her. My father who passed away this past January, on the same day as Suellen's brother, had the pleasure of meeting her several times and always said that she was full of life and loved her laugh! They talked often via email to one another and he loved hearing from her. I can say that I have a large empty space in my heart, and that God above has a very special angel that came home to rest. I will miss her dearly but she will always be alive in my memories of all the good times that were spent with her. In that way she will never be gone. May God bless all of her family and friends with his grace to help them in their time of sorrow.
