I meet Sue at Kraft as a newly hired collage graduate. She was so kind to me and took me under her wing. She had such an upbeat, fun personality. I was so honored when she came to Michigan to attend my wedding. Sue was a delightful person and a true friend. I will remember her fondly. My condolences to her family. ~ Stephanie (Bell) Robertson

Sue was an alumna of our food science program at the University of Illinois.  She was an enthusiastic and loyal Illini, so helpful and giving, and so supportive of others.  We'll miss her a lot.  Deepest condolences to her wonderful family.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief.  May your memories bring you 
comfort.

I did not know Sue very long but in the short time I meet her I realized what a sweet lady she was. We will miss you Sue and your cheerful spirit as well as your zest for exploring new things.

My condolences to the family.  I will miss Sue.  She was such a charismatic person at Kraft and a friend to me and the Alumni Group.  May the great memories of Sue keep the family strong at this time.  She has definitely earned her heavenly reward.

I enjoyed working together with Susan on numerous IFT committees.  Never did I know her to have a bad day. She will be missed.

I am so sorry for your loss.  I knew Susan when I worked at Kraft R&D.  She always had a smile on her face, a warm personality with a big heart.  May her memory be for blessing.

My condolences go out to all of the family.  Sue was a wonderful person and a real inspiration.  She always had such an upbeat attitude in spite of her physical challenges.  She enjoyed her family, her friends and, of course, her travels.  I think this was reflected in all of the wonderful pictures.  I will miss her.

So sorry for your loss, Maureen, Barb and the entire Monckton family.  Keeping you in my thoughts and prayers.  Treasure your wonderful memories as you celebrate Sue's life.

Sorry for your loss Cathy.  Prayers to you and your family.

I love you Sweet Sue. I had a wonderful Christmas with you catching up and talking about life, health, funny stories, eating sweets and most of all enjoying each others company. Love you xoxo you will be missed dearly.

 Susan faced continual health challenges but always wore a brave face and had so much gratitude for every day of life. Her indomitable spirit faced many challenges in this world. She put down the tired body and now she is free and rejoicing! Prayers for grace and peace for all.

Dear Monckton family:  So sad for your loss.  I worked with Susan while I was @Kraft R&D - wonderful, warm and great friend.  She was part of the "Pequods's Pizza" group that has met for many years over pizza and beer.  She will be dearly missed by all.  Linda Cooke

So sorry for your loss, Monckton Family and friends.  She is with the angels now and watching over all of you with loving eyes.

Dear Barb & Sue & all your family,

No words to fully express what you need, but I pray for God's peace & strength for you during this time, and the days ahead. If Sue was anything like either of you, she was a gem.

God bless you.

So sorry for your loss.   I don't think that I ever met Susan, but all the people from the Monckton family that I did meet were very special people.  I'm sure Susan was too.   Thinking particularly of Maureen & Barbara at this time, but my heart goes out to all the family members.   June Marra

Dear Barbara and Family,

I am so sorry to learn of Susan's passing.  Please know that my heart goes out to all of you during this very difficult time.

Just remember all the special times you spent with Susan as these memories will last forever!

Love,

Sue brought kindness and compassion to the workplace...not such common things to find there.  She was also a faithful supporter of our American Christian International Foundation.

Sue was one of the first people I met when I started working at Kraft right out of college 25 years ago. She was both a mentor and friend. Though we only worked together a few years, we would frequently run into each other at dairy and food industry events. She always looked for me...to say hello, to catch up. She always spoke so highly of her family. She adored her nieces and nephews. Her smile and energy was contagious. I will miss her very much. My sincere condolences. Donna (Gorski) Berry
