Out of college my first professional job with IBM is credited to Sue.
She was a wonderful, caring lady inside and out.

Sue, you were a good friend and we talked about so many things through the years.  We had a lot of fun time years ago at IBM.  Doing the Blood Drives for years, we always had a theme for each season, and I made my cookies.  I always remember you on the phone saying "back again".   You always made me laugh, I loved hearing about your boys and their children and all their adventures.  You were a kind soul and a good person.  I will miss you.  Jesus will welcome you into his kingdom with open arms, you will be out of pain and everything will be perfect. 

God Bless you,

Laura Murphy-Winch

My life was fuller with you as a friend.

"Those we love don’t go away, they walk beside us every day, unseen, unheard, but always near, still loved, still missed and very dear."

Rest in peace.

Love,
Mary Ann

Sue was our neighbor for 25 years and she was everything you would want a neighbor to be – kind, helpful, gracious, and supportive. I love that parishioners at King Street Church have been bringing flowers for the altar as a tribute to Sue. I’ll never hear the poem “She walks in beauty” without thinking of Sue.  

We are stunned to learn of Sue's passing.  We worked with Sue at IBM -- she was great to work with... always smiling and very professional.  Last time we saw her was in the Thrift Shop at King Street church at one of the recent lasagna dinners.  We will definitely miss seeing her always-smiling face in the future.  Unfortunately we are unable to attend her service because we'll be out of town.  Hugs, sincere condolences, and prayers for strength to her family.

Sue’s kindness, generosity and contagious smile made everyone at church feel welcome. She often contacted me when something came into the thrift shop that she thought I could use for the kids. When the choir was singing, we could always look out and see Sue’s bright smile as she listened to every note. She will be missed. 

Sue, I am happy you are at peace.  My life was so much better because you were my friend.  I will miss you and the many things we did together.  

Rest In Peace ....
Love, Jan

Forever young and beautiful!!!
A more beautiful soul you could not find!
Grace and elegance defined.
A spirit that will never die!!!
Enjoy the beauty of heaven.
Praying for peace for her beloved family.

When you were talking with Sue, you felt like you were the only one in the room. She knew the "art of conversation" and could have taught a course in it! Her style, her strength, her many interests, her love, made her a very well loved friend to so many.   I was blessed to be one of them.   
                                              
 I am so thankful for her family who took such loving care of Sue during the past year and especially these last few weeks. God bless you all for your dedicated, loving care for this beautiful lady.                                         

Our hearts are broken but we rejoice in the knowledge that Sue is fully restored and rejoicing in the presence of her Lord and Savior.

Sue, I am happy you are at peace and with our Lord.  I will miss your smile, your laugh, "the look", your bright colorful outfits .... well, just everything about you.  Thank you for being my friend.  My life got so much brighter when you came into it, now it just got darker.  You will live on in our hearts and memories.

Rest in peace, my friend.....

Love , Kathy
