Susan and I met our freshman year at Middleton. She and I became good friends. I spent time with her family as she spent with mine. We had a lot of good times Susan was a sweet kind soul. We both worked at Roper. She will be greatly missed. My thoughts and prayers go out to the family.

Susan left us far too soon. She was thoughtful, caring and great friend to us. She will be missed but not forgotten. She is with Louise and all who passed too soon. Forever in our hearts. Prayers from us to you and your family. All our love, Joe and Nancy

Susan was such a delightful person who fought hard to battle cancer. She accompanied her mom to Louise's Class of STA 1958's Second Wednesday lunches often; we all knew both daughters, Cindy Parker and Susan and loved them very much. We know that Susan is not struggling now, happy to be well and with her parents and many friends who have gone on before to live with our Savior. We extend our sympathy to her children and grandchild. She was such a good mother and wife, and loved you all so much. May happier days shared in the past comfort you in the coming days.
