Dear David, Doris and family.
So sorry to learn of Sue’s passing. All of you have great memories of Sue. She loved and was loved by her dear family. I like to now think that she and Hollis are together and are smiling down at their dear family.
May God give all of you peace and comfort.
Sincerely ,
Elsie and Vick
You may get a second note from me as I sent a condolence in the Times News obituary but not sure it went thru.
David,
Sad to learn of your mom’s passing. You and family are in our thoughts and prayers.
May the Lord comfort and strengthen each of you.
Walt
Sorry to hear about Sue, you all have my sympathy and prayers.
If anyone was a friend it was Sue. She was a very special, loving person. I was her hairdresser for about 40 years. We shared a lot of ups and downs. Sue was always there with a listening ear when I had problems. A great friend that will be missed but hope to see her some day.
