I met Sue when she and Sharman came to Washington, Kansas for the city wide garage sales. Marilyn Hanshaw, a cousin lived next to me so always enjoyed when they came and sold their wares.
She was a very friendly lady and I enjoyed getting to meet her.
Sending thoughts and prayers to all her family and may she RIP. I am sure her and Marilyn are having quite a visit.
Sending my thoughts and prayers….i worked with Sue for many years. May everyone find solace during this sorrowful time.
My mighty cousin, indeed! What a gal! Will miss you very, very much! How much we were a part of each other's lives, as children, adults...play mates...named after your grandmother, Lora Champ, a champion of a woman, as were you! God speed your soul to heavenly goodness! I love you....cuz lila❤️
She always had a warm smile and i forget her name was Sue. I called her MOM . She always had encouraging words and great advice. I always got a kick out of being one of the first to wish you happy Birthday and Merry Christmas. I liked the phone calls fron John telling me that she made it a point to tell him I reached out with well wishes first. She had away of bringing out a smile. She is gonna be missed so much. Thank you for the time and memories MOM
