I can’t begin to tell all of you what Suzy has meant to me all these years.
I can’t believe she’s gone onto the Heaven I know she’s due. Isn’t it ironic that I have a granddaughter named Suzanne? To me, your Suzy lives on in her. Suzy was so smart, so wise beyond her years, so unique in her spirit and in her heart. I have lost three close friends to breast cancer and now Suzi, too. I think about her everyday and I know I will always. I spoke with her about her diagnosis and how she was looking ahead with hope but knowing the future would be difficult. She
was so grateful to have her sisters and John and her mom and dad. But she was sad to have to bring one more worry into all of your lives.
As I sit here with tears in my eyes, know how much I admired her accomplishments and her heart. She was so complex and so caring in her spirit. You all were so blessed to have her if only for way, way too short a time. My life will never be the same having lost her but it would never have been as blessed without her. Love to all of you, Chris
