Sue was such a giving and caring woman. I have such fond memories of her as a child and then when I dated and then married her nephew it was a lovely surprise to have her as an Aunt. She will be missed but I'm so glad that she is in the loving arms of our Lord Jesus Christ and that she's not suffering anymore.
