I’m so sorry for your loss. Sue was such a thoughtful and caring person. 
Karen Parker 

For our family the Utaski‘s three brothers from distant states. Sue was an angel!! our mother, Mary, and father John Utaski moved to Hot Springs from the Chicago area several decades ago. After our father John died our mother Mary lived alone. Her three boys know dealt with families of their own lived in three different distant cities. Princeton, New Jersey, Cincinnati, Ohio, and Melrose Park, Illinois long airplane rides.Sue became Mary’s best friend first and Mary’s home, and then at her nursing home has Alzheimer’s took its toll. Our mother Mary always had a smile if Sue was around as time progressed, she will became a member of our family…… she was by her nature the ultimate example of what a caregiver should be. We knew Sue had lost two husbands, and yet found a way to bring happiness to others. A remarkable woman not easily forgotten. Much loved by all of us, she shall certainly be missed. We traded calls around our birthdays and of course Christmas. this message written by the eldest of the three Utaski brothers, with gods love, Jim

I have always loved Sue. She was there for me when no one else was in my early years. Her heart was as big as her smile. Will never forget all the trips to the zoo with her in her station wagon. I know she is smiling now being with her Jesus.

To Jannie, Linda, Teresa and Vivian. My memories go way back with your mom, dad and Jimmy and all of you. Y’all were my second family and I cherish all the memories that I spent with all of you as we were growing up. You’re mom was my second mom and treated me as her own. She was beautiful inside and out. I loved her with all my heart. May God give all of you peace and comfort at this time and all the days ahead. Much love to all of you.
