To remember Sue, take the time to help someone else, be kind to an animal, share joy and grief. Be a fair , thankful and positive friend. Most importantly, strive to touch others lives in the way she touched ours.
She would also ask us not to mourn her death but to celebrate her life. So as we are able, we grasp the vanishing trail of her courage to go on in a world without her.
Memorial contributions may be made in her name to the Montana Mountain Home of Missoula.
