Tracy, I am so sorry to hear of Sues passing. She & I go back a long way. She and her Mom and Dad use to come to my parents grocery store on Plaza street. That was when she and I were quiet young in the 1940’s. I always thought a lot of Sue, a very sweet lady. She will be missed by a bunch of people and heaven has a new angel.

So sorry. She was one of my best friends when we graduated from high school at Barton. Then both of us got married and our families became very close. We played cards at our homes in West Helena and then eventually lived on the same street for a few years.

Sorry to learn of Dora Sue’s passing. Tho, I haven’t seen her in several years,I have fond memories of she and others ,who gladly took me into their fellowship when my late husband and I moved to Phillips County in the early years of the 60’s. She made me feel so welcome. She was good doing that. May her family accept my sincere condolences.
