I'm the brother-in-law Harry my wife at the age of 76 passed away on October 23rd 2022

Sue was one of my two older sisters, she being closest in age to me.  We had a loving, happy, fun childhood; and as the years went on, she became a source of inspiration and help to me.  I never heard her say “no” if I needed anything and provided countless hours of quiet listening, cleaning tips, just being silly - you name it.  She was a ready babysitter any time I needed one and my son loved her…she liked to have fun!  

She was a great mother to her two sons and loved them to the ends of the earth, only sleeping two hours a night when they were babies in case they woke up crying.  

The way she struggled through all her various disabilities and illnesses from a baby to the day she went home is a source of inspiration to anyone who knew her.  She was a fighter, determined not to let anything hold her down, even when most of us would have just took to the bed. 

Her steadfast faith in God guided her through all her days.  I was truly blessed to call her my sister and my friend.  I loved her so much and will miss her more than words can express; but am comforted to know she is whole and happy in Heaven with the ones who went before her.

Sue was fire and water! sweetest person I have met. Also the most direct. We argued like cats and dogs as I was a employee and young minded! I worked under her for years. We would get into it and then sit on her porch after work and talk for ever. She loved them times as I enjoyed it as well.  I was a child during these times from age 17-23. She personally hired me when I was at my low. I had no familly In Florida and was about to have to relocate. The company became my family.  When she wasn't my boss, she was always trying to direct me in the best way. We had contact  every once and a while after. She was a person of God. A loving dedicated person.  I have thought about her time and time again over the years.  Thinking I should go see her, minus the occasional phone calls!  Maybe take her to dinner,  Saddened I never did! as life keeps us all busy....  My experiences with her and the business has made me the person I am today.  I'm truly hurt that her time has passed.  She will always be remembered  and im thankful for the time I had with her!  

"She hath done what she could" I thank God for such a godly mother who saw that her children were taken to church and assisted in us "getting saved" by our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.
 Ministry can only come through misery. My mother suffered a great deal in her life and over came many obstacles, tribulations, trials etc and emerged as one of the most Godly women I have ever met in my life. 
My mother saw to it that we always had a roof over our heads, clothes on out back, and food in out stomachs. She ministered to her church brothers and sisters, her family, her employees, neighbors, and strangers. She gave of her time, money, and talent endlessly to anyone in need-even strangers.
I will miss my mother greatly, but I have the comfort and assurance to know that I will soon see her in heaven when the Lord sounds the trumpet or I sleep before then!
I love you mom, you were the best mother, employee, friend, and you will be missed by so many people who you had the opportunity to minster to and touch their lives.
"Well done thou good and faithful servant, enter thou into the joy of the Lord. You were faithful in little, I will make you faithful over much!"
