I never had the chance to tell Sue that she was a wonderful godmother. She has left me with some fond memories of my childhood. She was there for the special events in my life. She encouraged me to do the best that I could. She demonstrated love through her patience, kindness and thoughtfulness. She took the time to talk. She tried to understand and help others through the diffuculties of life. I love you Sue and will miss you. Kathy
