Carol Neumann says:
Sue was bright & bubbly. I worked with her several years while she was a casual for Aurora Healthcare. She was very dedicated to her family & her patients. She would light up when she talked about her spouse and children. Her compassion was evident when you saw her instruct patients or work to help them recover from their medical problems. She will be missed by many. My deepest sympathy for the family.
David Himpelmann says:
There is a song written from the perspective of a person who has recently died. The lyrics that pertain here are: “All I ask of you is forever to remember me as loving you.” We all know that Sue was very loving, and I think we will do well to remember her love for all of us who knew her.

Susie was a member of my second family, who will be missed for her kind fun loving nature. Thinking of Susie will always remind me of her holiday bread, M&M cookies and Xmas riddles made from her heart for us. She was and always will be so loved. I will miss her dearly.
