I am so sorry to hear about Sue's passing. I have many wonderful memories of Sue, Mary, Nita, and Cindy growing up. They lived at the corner of the neighborhood I grew up in and the Reed girls and the Lawrence girls seemed to always be at one house or the other. Sue was like a real funny big sister. Although we haven't seen each other for a long time, I really feel for your loss. I know heaven is a brighter place with her there. She is in my prayers. Christal Lawrence Finck
