Susan, was a very faithful volunteer each Monday morning for the Community Breakfast, at Christ Church, where she took pride in delivering each order to those who attended. She would always apologize profusely on those occasions she was unable to be present. She will be missed but not forgotten by the other members of “the kitchen crew” and our regular attendees. May she rest in peace and rise in glory.

I m so sorry for your loss of a very fine lady. I did not know her well, but enjoyed an exercise class with her for many years. She was always fun to be around during the hour long class. She loved her “children” and I am sure they benefitted by being in her care! Rest in peace, Susan. Sincerely, Kathy
