Richard, Alex, Olivia...
I was just made aware of Sue's passing today. I was saddened by the news, especially that I found out too late to attend her service.

Sue was a great lady, and a super dance mom friend throughout the dance years!! We had a lot of laughs over dance stuff...Showstopper 2008 especially comes to mind! And of course that crazy choo choo train trip to NYC...with the dancing daughters! That was a great time!!

May God be with you all during this time. I know she's in a great place!!

In Love and Friendship
Mel Hnatt

Mr. & Mrs. Kopas, Frank & Beth Ann,
I am so sorry for your loss. I will miss Sue very much. I thought about her all the time and didn't know she was going through this the last couple of yrs. She never told me the cancer had returned. I feel so bad that we hadn't gotten together like we had planned so many times. It just breaks my heart. Talking is never like seeing each other in person. She will always be watching over you from above and doing the best to take care of you and Alex, Olivia and Rich.

Sue was my first friend when my husband and I moved our young family to NC 15 years ago, knowing no one. She reached out to me immediately with friendship and assistance in many ways. She had a wonderful sense of humor so we shared many laughs in those days. Having Sue in my life gave me a sense of security and strength to conquer whatever each day brought my way. I thank God for the gift of knowing Sue and the priviledge of having been counted her friend.

Rich, Alex, Olivia and Mr. & Mrs. Kopas and family,
I am so sorry to hear this news today. I can not express how much she will be missed and the great moments we had together. I can remember her being there always to talk me through when I though I would never have Sam and then we were pregnant at the same time. She was so strong to have gone through all this and I know she loved you so much Rich. I know that she will be watching over from above and she will guide us all through this. Remember that anything I can do, I will be here for you. Love, Laura & Jim Kramer and family, Minersville, PA
