    Carson, Phyllis & Nancy...I am shocked and so so sorry to hear of Sue's passing. My parents and I were talking about your family the other day and wishing that you still lived on Lynne Ave. in Henderson. We all always thought so much of each of you. I have been staying with Mama & Daddy in Henderson and helping them. Daddy was 89 in Nov. and Mama will be 83 in Mar. I come home to Cary every week to get my mail and check on my house. Mama and Daddy will be so distraught when I tell them about Sue. We always loved your family. Please know that you are in our thoughts and prayers. Love always, Patricia

    Carson, Nancy, and Phyllis, My thoughts and prayers are with you all. Sue was a wonderful sister and I will miss her with all of my heart. She and I always found ourselves laughing together about everything. She had a great sense of humor. She loved her family dearly and I know it was hard for her to leave us. She will be greatly missed. Love you, Debbie
