We will always remember all the miracles that seem to happen when you were near. For example, When St, Anthony's asked us to knit scarves for the homeless, I said we couldn't do it because we didn't have the yarn or the money to buy the yarn. That afternoon you received a call from a friend. She had heard about a yarn donation. Needless to say we made 2500 scarves for the homeless that yr.

Although I hadn't seen Sue recently, she was a part of my extended family. She was an integral part of my life for sixteen years, more like a sister than a mother-in-law and always made our holidays, family gatherings, outings etc. cheerful and special. She was a wonderful "Grandma Susan" to the boys and will be missed forever. What a sweet and giving soul. We love you Susan,

you will be missed. You brought love, friendship and joy to our relationship. I will miss my beloved quilting buddy. Neither the 9 patch girls or the retreats will be the same. It was a privilege to be your friend. I will treasure the things I learned from you. You are in my blessing bowl. Hope you save me a place in heaven. Love you.

Oh, what a wonderful lady and funny. I will sure miss seeing her quilt tops arrive with a note from her telling me what she would like on it, and always a "I Love You" at the end of every note. You have many friends and family that will miss you deeply. I will never forget you.

Oh Sue we have just connect again after so many years. Was looking forward to you joining us for quilting. Thought of you New Year Eve when a Temptation song came on and you dancing the tempatation step. Good memories, thank you for being a part of my life. You will be missed!

I want to share something profound and thoughtful, but the only thing I can think of is "I can't believe you're not here". You will always live on in the hearts of those you've helped and mentored. We will carry on your legacy forever. I miss you.

I speak to you every day from my heart sweet Sister Sue. You were my quilting guru, my friend, my partner-in-crime, my go-to person for questions. Many laughs on our rides to Ronald McDonald House. Your circle of friends and loved ones is huge. Thank you for the privilege to be part of that circle and share in your joy of your family, friends and quilting.

so much and I'm so grateful you touched my

As tears stream down my face I still can't believe you're gone. You were an angel on earth and I know you'll continue to do whatever work you can to keep us safe from your very special place in heaven.
As we said so many times..we were not only sisters but kindred spirits as well.I will miss you and your "I love You's"

I will be talking to you all the time. We are such believers in angels and help from those who are in heaven that I know you will be listening. I will miss our annual birthday luncheon and e-mails that I always looked forward to receiving. You and I are truly sisters and I have so many wonderful memories and shared events. Miss you already.

Sue, you will be missed. While I did not see you recently, I am so glad our lives crossed with our daughters. You were a big help to me then when we were raising them. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers. You positively touched so many.

OK- this site ought to let us post more :) So, that was my low when Sue brought me up! There are so many other stories-another favorite is a Clearlake classic when I was questioned about my first hickey (that's all I will say about that, but Dena knows what I mean by a "double feature"). Sue did not say a word to embarrass me:) Typical Sue fashion-so kind and forgiving! I will miss you!

Sue - I have spent all day trying to figure out what is appropriate to post! I already miss you so much. You were such an inspiration to me, especially after we returned from Clearlake on June 7, 1981 and I learned my dad had passed away the day before. You were immediately there for me and brought me back to Clearlake only 2 weeks later to help me get over such an awful event.

One time I contacted someone and I was so excited because I told Sue "we got a fabric donation".   Well we had no idea that it was upholstry fabric!  I was on vacation and when I got back to work my mail room told me I had 15 boxes of fabric downstairs to pick up.  I thought they were joking! 

Sue to the rescue!  We scheduled a time on a Saturday to come down to my job and pick the boxes up.  She and I carrying those heavy boxes trying to make them fit in that beautiful car of hers....and then we went to the sewing room to deposit them. As we opened each and every box ... it was all upholstry fabric.  We can't use that for quilts for the kids who have cancer with their tender skin!

But here is Sue making lemonade out of lemons!  She ended up making bags to hold our quilts, some for the homeless to hold their possessions ... etc.  She was full of great ideas and never looked at the glass half empty.  We would laugh many years after that experience at how funny that was!  And I learned from her, we never said no to any donation...and whatever it was, she would help me figure out what to do with it.

I will forever miss you my speical friend.  You are in my heart and your smiling face in my mind.
