My memories with my beloved kind and compassionate cousin Sue, go back
70 yrs ago in Lansing MI, where Sue and I set next to each other in school in
Lansing Ressurection, that is until the nuns found out that we were related, they
than decided to separate us ......our feelings were hurt so much, as we were
very close, and my dear Sue took the time to listen to any of my problems.
She was also very close to my mother Mary. Also looked and acted like my
wife Eileen who passed away this past
year.

I close my eyes as I wipe a tear,
I just keep wishing you were still here.
I will hold all the memories deep in my heart,
Through these memories we will never part.

I close my eyes as I wipe a tear,
I just keep wishing this pain would disappear.
I didn't get the chance to say my last good-bye,
I didn't think time would pass us by.

I close my eyes as I wipe a tear,
All of your love I will always hold near.
In my heart and my mind I will never be alone,
When my time comes...
I will meet you in Heaven.

In loving memory of a wonderful person. We will love you and miss you always.

Joyce Hummel

I still love you the same as if you were here with me, laughing during the good times and crying during the bad ones.
I miss being able to call you any time and spend hours talking about everything under the sun.
As children we were practically joined at the hip, but we grew up and grew apart, as most siblings do.
We had our own set of friends and our own set of goals for our lives, but that still didn't change the fact that we were sisters.
There was nothing that I wouldn't do for you and nothing that you wouldn't do for me.
I always wish you were still here with me enjoying life, but I can understand why God would want such a beautiful angel on his side from now until eternity.
Just know that I Love and Miss You.

Sue and I worked together in the personnel office (Treasury) for many years. Sue was a very conscientious and dedicated worker. She had a big heart and cared about the people she dealt with. In what often was a cold, cruel bussiness, Sue always added her warmth, compassion and empathy in her work. Her sense of humor was refreshing and often helped to lighten the tension in the work place.

Being around Sue, it was easy to tell that her greatest love was for her children, Mike and Debbie and her grandchildren. She'd talk about them with pride and beamed whenever they visited her at work.

I was fortunate to work beside Sue for all those years. The employees and managers that Sue helped in her career were also blessed by her professional skills and by her humanity.

Sue made the world a better place for a lot of people. I'll always fondly remember the time and experiences we shared with the knowledge that Sue now enjoys the lasting peace she so richly has earned.

Thank you Sue for everything you have been and for all you have done for so many. Peace and love.

My condolences to the family. I didn't get to see Sue and Rex very often, but they would always liven up any event. Sue was very funny and down to earth. She will be missed.

You were the best Aunt Sue! We had the greatest times together! I will remember our excursions to Sanibel and Captiva Islands, and mostly to "our" favorite beach, Bonita Beach. I'll remember our trips to Jerry's for our favorite pineapple salads - me chicken, you seafood. I'll remember laughing with you while we watched "Two And A Half Men" and our rivalries on "American Idol" (We seemed to always vote against each other - what was up with that)?! While we always sat and ate licorice, bag after bag! You had the funniest stories and jokes! You and Uncle Rex always welcomed us into your home. You were the bestest hostess! I will treasure every memory with you. I will always love you and always remember you... Thank You - for everything. I WILL MISS YOU - more than you'll ever know...
