Susie, we will miss you. For nearly three years at NECC we sat next to each other. She was always so full of energy and supportive to all. She was extremely dedicated and I was proud to serve/work with her. My condolences to her family. I could see the pictures she hung at her desk and she talked so proudly of you all.

Susie,
You have made this world better because you were in it! You were a friend from the moment I met you 30 years ago. And even worth the years that passed us by we picked up right where we left off. Gone too soon! Love you my sister until we see each other again!
There will forever by a hole in my heart . Susie was more than my sister she was my friend, my protector growing up and my rock and confidant. Most importantly she played her role as an Aunt to my two children who looked up to her all their lives. She most definitely will never be forgotten. Love you Susie… save my seat.
