Marilyn,Mason, Brad,
I was so shocked when I heard the news. I am so sorry for your loss Marilyn. I will keep you and your family in my prayers. I will always remember our trip to Lexington with Susan and Mason. That is a special memory and I'm thankful to have had the pleasure of knowing Susan. She was a special lady and a good Mom. May God comfort you and keep you.

So very sad to hear of Susan passing. My it seems as only a few days ago she and Stacy were playing together. I cannot expess my feelings to you and Brad. I was talking with a friend not long ago about our trip to Disney and our trip across Aligator Alley. Keeping you in my thoughts.

Dear Marilyn,
Everything I can say will be so inadequate at a time like this. I am so sorry for your loss. Loosing Doug in his prime and now a precious daughter at such a young age is tragedy heaped upon tragedy. I'm not sure how I would cope with the loss of one of my five kids and I cannot imagine how you are dealing with this most recent loss. I pray that you will keep them alive in your heart by remembering all the good times you shared.

I graduated GCHS with you and Doug. Maybe we will see each other at the GCHS reunion this fall.
