Dear Meredith,
My sincere condolences on Susan’s passing. I always enjoyed my brief conversations with her as I did my rounds. May she rest in God’s peace forever and may you be consoled as you remember her and her love for you.

A Sweet, loving soul. Her door was always open to the neighborhood kids and I still have some of the winter mittens she knit for us, growing up. I hope she is at peace, now, with Penny and George.
