My condolences to the family and close friends. Our class was unlike most classes from Riley. I believe we were closer than most. We very much enjoy and enjoyed each others company when ever we could get together. I think the older we become the passing of a friend and classmate leaves an empty place in our hearts.. Suellen will be greatly missed by this classmate.

Sue was a very important part of my childhood. She took care of me when my parents had to go out of town, she allowed me into her house and her life as the friend of one of her daughters. She even drove all the way to Iowa to bring Christina to see me after I moved - and got stuck for a few extra days because of a blizzard...She allowed me to stay at her house for a few weeks when we were "between houses" moving again.
She helped facilitate my love of Neil Diamond and took Christina and me to see New Kids on the Block. Though we hadn't spoke in a very long time, she will always be imprinted on my heart and a very important part of my youth, I love you Sue and your family. I always will.

I would like to express my heartfelt sympathy to the family for the loss of your dear Suellen. I hope that you will find comfort in the words of Jesus at John 5:28,29 where he promised that the day is coming when he is going to resurrect back to life those in the grave. Until then, it is just like they are sleeping. (John 11:11-13) May you draw strength from Jehovah, the God of all Comfort.
