Hi mom, I miss & love you greatly.
There's so many fun memories I have of enjoyably moments with you like that time in Naperville with the pickles at Burger King, or when you were at the hospital in Denver 21 years ago today when Sean was born. Remember when you showed up to the gallery where I was displaying my artwork for the very first time, or all the baseball games you drove me to, the swimming lessons, & how you helped me when I had no where to go?
I miss you each & every day. I'll see you soon. I love you….
It's hard to believe it has been more than a week since Sue went home. I was in the grocery store today and heard the song Susie Snowflake. It made me smile. She always sang a lot of these old tunes, especially A Bushel and A Peck to her grandchildren. We sure do miss her.
Love,
Angie
Our deepest sympathy to Sue's family. She became part of our family when Mike married our daughter Angela. We will miss going for coffee together.
i was lucky enough to be married to this beautiful lady for 49 years. I miss her every day….She was the best wife anyone could ever ask for…She was very supportive of everything I did in life or tried to do…Sue was a practicle joker…She liked to play jokes on people and then would burst into spontaneous laughter at the right time…She was a great Mother to our sons Mike and John, who both have a lot of her traits including high principles and sense of integrity, a clear set of values and a double dose of determination and perseverance……I know they will both miss her tremendously as do I……She will and is greatly missed by many, but lives on through myself and John and Mike and the beautiful Grandkids we have…Kevin, Brandon, Sean, Noah, Eli, Camille…..We all love you Sue, Mom, and Grandma Sue….We will see you again soon….Love, Chuck
Mom! Merry Christmas ! This is our first Christmas with out you and I miss you so much. I will always remember all of the good times we had together such as conversations about life and how things are going over the phone or in the car after baseball and wrestling practices and games. You were always a good listener and always provided support for me in any situation. You were the best Mom and Grandmother anybody could ask for. There are so many memories to share that I do not know where to start. From the motorcycle rides you gave me at the farm in upper Wisconsin to screaming for me to make my opponents eat mat during my wrestling matches, you are the best!
I miss you and I will see you in the future in heaven!
Love,
Mike
