  1. Dear Jean and Al, I was so very sorry to learn of Susie’s passing. I was out of town and sorry I didn’t make her visitation….what a special lady she was. How very lucky you were to have her in your lives. She had a laugh that will never be forgotten. I can still hear her laugh when she got tickled about something and that was quite often. What special memories you have of her. Hold them close and always remember those good times. We know God has another special angel and Susie is that angel. Know that you are in my thoughts and I’m extending my late, but sincere sympathy. Hugs to you both from me. With love, Annamae
