Dear Scott, Sammie & family,
Sue was my aunt by marriage for many years, married to my Uncle Harry. She and Uncle Harry were such important parts of my life. I’m so thankful to have had them as part of my family. I remember meeting you guys long ago. Sue was extremely proud of you and loved you so much. She was a beautiful, classy, intelligent lady, and was always kind to me. I know how much you will miss her. You guys are in my prayers.
With much love and condolences!
Candice
