Mommy, Susie, Susan or Dr. V – I will miss my Mom, her distinct laughter, pepsies, Long Johns and love of all of her Girls! She was our strongest supporter and biggest defender. Thank you to all for your love, support and funny stories…it truly helps.

Dear Laurie, Lisa and Lee,
I will remember all those years that your mom, the great “Aunt Susie” hosted, or better yet entertained us for a week each summer so all of us cousins could be together. The barn, the corn field, the swimming at the club…always tending to our every whim with that PEPSI in her hand!Great memories are what life is lived for..I am so sorry for your loss, and unfortunatley know all too well what you are experiencing. It is so hard to believe that in 2 1/2 short months the sisters are together again… May GOD keep you during these times and your beloved memories of time well spent with your mother sustain you! All my love, Vicki
