I am so saddened by this shocking news. My heart will always have a very special place for my best high school friend, Sue. We had the time of our lives on a Hawaii vacation and on an Acapulco vacation. There are so many special thoughts I will hold in my heart. I will pray for comfort for Sue's family and friends. With sympathy and love, Claudia, Don and Kylie Germann

My deepest condolences to the family. Sue and I are cousins. We haven't seen each other in years. We made contact through facebook. You always say youre going to get together but time gets away. From the conversation we did have she has obviously lived a full life and will be missed by many.

So sorry for the loss of such an integral member of your family. Our prayers are that she is at peace and with God. We know her son as a good neighbor and friend. We both look out for him fondly. Peace be with your family Wild Bill (Billy). We both know she was proud of the young man you have become.

Sue was a wonderful friend of my sister Bette Williams. Though Ide only met Sue a few times over the years, I was impressed by how friendly she was and always willing to help where she could. I know she will be greatly missed by all who knew her. Thoughts and sympathy to all her friends and family.

I’m so sorry for your immense loss. I worked with Sue at TBH and she was a pillar of strength and integrity. She was a role model for us all. ❤️

I knew Sue as she was my daughter’s softball coach and I knew Bill through my husband. I had the opportunity to recently start communicating with Sue again and I was amazed as ever by her strength. She was a wonderful person to be around and I will never forget her having a sleepover for all her ‘girls’ on the softball team and all the swim parties. My heart goes out to Bill, Julie, Bill Jr., and Elizabeth and family. Be at peace Sue.

While I only met her a hand full of times I am great ful for the times that I got to spend with her. She is the true definition of a fighter and survivor. We all have an angel watching over us. May all prayers be with the family and friends.
