  2. I haven’t known Susie for very long – just a couple of years since her precious daughter met my son – but she became important to me. I love her wonderful positive attitude and how she loves her family. She raised a beautiful, loving, caring daughter (Christine) and I will always be thankful that she taught her how to love and be strong. She is greatly missed!
