Zsuzsa, you were the love of my life. To my everlasting regret we didn't make it. I thought of you daily for over thirty years and now it's too late. Death is so final. May you rest in peace and rise in the glory we never achieved.

You were my best childhood friend. From the time we met in third grade till the time I left the country when we were in seventh grade we were inseparable not only in class, but after school too. It was such magic, unforgettable time in our life. We had so much fun playing, going places together, and sharing secrets. You will forever be in my heart.    Eva K. Farago Zaleckas (Skillman, New Jersey, USA)

My prayers and condolences go out for your family and loved ones. I cannot express how sad I felt when I heard the news today, but shortly after I thought of your 4th floor science class and then I smiled. Many of us (grad class of 2008) share pleasent memories in that class with you. You saw everyone's potential and I witnessed how much effort you put in helping everyone in that class. At the end of the school year you came to class with frozen treats and told us how happy you were to have taught us. Two years after, I remember you crying as we graduated and I thought to myself, you were not only a teacher to us but also another mother applauding our achievements. Thank you sooo much for guiding, supporting and believing in me and my fellow graduates!  You will be missed dearly, RIP Ms. Rady-Pentek.

Good Night Susan.  May you rest in peace.

It is a sad day today, only heightened by the rain that fell.  In spite of the fact that rain brings life, it only echoed the tears in our eyes as we said goodbye to our friend, colleague and mentor.  

I will miss our adventures together, the jokes shared and the classical music playing in your car as we traversed the city on our work-related trips.  That sense of humour made me laugh, but the generosity in spirit is what I will miss most. I will take it with me knowing full-well you are in a better place.    

I will have a b52 in your honour tonight.  RIP Susan.

Sue welcomed me at St. Pat Science Dept. with a wide smile and open hands. She genuinely cared for her colleagues and students. Sue was a very generous and to date me still have a gift of living plants that she gave in 2006. In her words, she told me ‘Joseph take these plants and decorate your house, when you look at them remember me.' Sue, I remember you and may our LORD shine your eternal path and grant you a glorious eternity. AMEN
Joseph Kahenya

I will always remember Susan as a fabulous role model for young women. We were so blessed to have you as our neighbour. Rest in peace dear friend.

Memories...wonderful "good old" times memories!
You were wearing a white dress,when I first met you and I told myself... what a beautiful Lady with this gorgeous body and a "Mona Lisa" smile
Every time we would travel together on the plane, you would manage (not me)to seat beside a charming gentleman and boy I was gealous (ha,ha)... This was a part of our life as Judges, having fun after a competition and trying our best during a competition
I will cherish these memories and many others forever

My heart is heavy with the news of Susan's passing. But I will hold her spirit and memory close to my heart, remembering her passion and dedication to her many loves - family, sport, and teaching to name a few. Sending my condolences and prayers to her family. With great fondness ~ Erika

In loving memory of a wonderful person. You will be missed by the rhythmic gymnastics community.

Susan made a wonderful contribution to Rhythmic Gymnastics. her Rg family will miss her. Laura Cruz, ex- GO RG Tech Chair

I will always remember Susan for her dedication and passion as a judge in rhythmic gymnastics when I was an athlete.  I had the pleasure of travelling with Susan to Hungary several times as an athlete and enjoyed the whole experience.  When in Hungary Susan set us up with a few boys from her brothers school to show us Hungary (LOL).  I had great admiration and respect for Susan. I often would seek advice from Susan when I had obstacles to overcome. Susan always had the best advice. I am a teacher today because of Susan and I am grateful for her words of wisdom! Susan truly touched my life.  Susan you will be missed!

She (and her dry sense of humour) will be truly missed.

Will always remember Susan's laughter and love of a good joke, her passion for food and her wonderful fashion sense.  She was a talented women who will be missed very much.

I used to sit with Susan for lunch at St. Pat's. We had many laughs during those times. I was aware of her empty seat (she insisted on having the exact same spot each day) after she retired. That seat is even more empty now - I  miss you Susan and I thank you for your example, your professionalism and for the fun.

I used to sit with Susan for lunch at St. Pat's. We had many laughs over the years and ever since her retirement I have missed those times - her empty seat (she always insisted on having the exact same spot each day) is even more empty to me now. Thank you Susan for your friendship, your example, your professionalism and the fun. ...................Mary Kelly (St. Patrick CSS)

My memories of Susan will also involve her wry sense of humour and her laughter. She was a great teacher and a support for her colleagues. One would be remiss if you forgot to mention food. She was a great cook and
often shared some of her creations with me. I'll miss her as will so many others.

susan,thanks for exchanging  sharing ethnic recipes and making me laugh before i ventured with a mix of trepidation,hopelessness and some eagerness to my classes.your humour and classic jokes,saved me from depression just before i retired.though i had not met you many times after you retired,i cannot forget the good times,the good food you shared with me and some friends.you certainly will be missed by all of us at st.pat,s

Susan was as genuine as she was generous and as elegant as she was homourous.  The rhythmic gymnastics community is grateful for her time and dedication to a sport she loved and volunteered at for years.  Her friendship and shared love of the outdoors, sport, good food, good wine and good jokes will be sadly missed.

I have had nothing but respect and admiration for Susan and her incredible life story.  As a fellow teacher at St. Patrick CSS she offered her friendship, professionalism and humour at all times.  I will always miss her.

Playing tennis will never be the same again without you, Susan.  You were a great partner and a worthy opponent.  "Love" from Marylou

Your strength, dignity, and knowledge are missed here at St. Pat's. Thanks for all your help in the Science Department.
Mary Marcon

not only were you a great tennis partner but also a great friend.  Lorraine Gray.

Your kind memory will be reserved in my heart still I am alive.Your sister from Hungary. Eta
