My thoughts and prayers are with you at this time, but I know that Suzy is having a good time with your parents and Charles! Your family has always been so uplifting, so warm and caring to everyone around them and Suzy always made sure that they were laughing as well. I know that she will be missed and tears will fall, please take comfort in the knowledge that she was loved by so many people that she helped through the years. You will be missed Suzy.

To the Cole Family:

I was fortunate enough to know Suzy as a young child. She performed with my older sister, Prisca, during the Emily Robinson era of The Golden Players. I recall a time when she was on stage with a nail through her shoe and foot. Her motto was "the show must go on". She reinforced this same principle to me later when she was directing The Youth Company and it was my turn to perform. While it has been over 20 years since I have seen Suzy, something tells, if she could, she would once again remind those of us left grieving that the show must go on.

Warmest condolences to the family and to our Suzy, your humor must make heaven is a brighter, funnier place-BREAK A LEG!

This is shocking news. :( I lost contact with Suzy after moving from the neighborhood. I am pleased to see how far she had gone in life. She was an amazing woman. As a child she was always a delightful friend. Rest in peace, Suzy. You are missed by many.
