Kevin and family - my deepest sympathies to you all over the loss of your dear wife, mother and friend. I spent many nights babysitting the kids all those years ago and know how very much you all loved her. My thoughts are with you all during this difficult time.

Kevin & family,
We just returned from Georgia and were so sad to hear of Susan's passing. We wanted you to know our thoughts and prayers are with you all.
We and our children's best memory of Susan is the peace she brought to our hearts whenever we had to go in for any surgery and there were several surgeries. She always made us feel safe and in good hands. It takes a special person to give you a peaceful safe feeling in trying times.
Sincerely,
George & Brenda Cowper

The summer of 1986, I babysat all three children: Heather had just finished kindergarten, Jordan was being potty trained, and Brooke was teething. One thing I remember is that we always had potato chips for lunch because Susan always had several bags of them in the deep freeze. At 16, I thought that was the strangest thing because my mom never froze potato chips. Also, if I called her at work because of something that had happened, she never got
The summer of 1986, I babysat all three children: Heather had just finished kindergarten, Jordan was being potty trained, and Brooke was teething.

At 16, I thought that was the strangest thing because my mom never froze potato chips. Also, if I called her at work because of something that had happened, she never got upset and was always so sweet. I am so sorry for your loss and will keep your family in my thoughts and prayers.

Dear Kevin, Jordan and Family,
We are so very sorry to hear of the loss of Susan. Please know that your family is in our thoughts and prayers. We are in shock to hear of this. Your family took such good care of Billy while he was in Quincy and I know he thought the world of Susan. We will always be greatful to Kevin, Jordan and Susan for all that you did for him! Again, your family is in our prayers.
