Chris, Tim & Families I am so truly sorry to read in the paper today of Sue's passing. I am shocked and very saddened to know I will not be seeing Sue this year to extend, change or just maintain her gardens we worked together (annually it seemed) on. I loved working with your mother she was fun, creative and energetic always filling me in on her past and next adventure. Sue loved her home in its natural setting always referring to "Hub" it was a pleasure to be with her I will certainly miss our walks through the yard planning the next phase of gardens. Deepest Sympathy Wendy Trahan

Dear Chris and Tim, I was saddened to hear of your mother's passing. She was a force of nature and inspiring in so many ways. I have often thought of your family and smile at the great memories. I'm sure she is getting heaven ship-shape and teasing your Dad once more! Keep those good memories close to your hearts when a sad moment comes upon you and be sure she is watching over you and yours until we all meet again. Love you guys Carrie Ellen.

It's more than 50 years ago since we were at Nursing School together. I could never forget her. She was a good example of laughing and having fun and having a good heart. I'm sad that she is gone.
