Ken, Keith and Kirk: My sincere condolences on the passing of your wonderful mother. We worked together for many, many years at the truck stop and at Bethlehem Twp. School. Our friendship was one I will treasure forever. Her greatest joy in her life was her children and grandchildren! When she had her first grandchild she was on cloud 9 for weeks! I loved her dearly and will miss our talks! Hold onto the memories boys….it helps!
God Bless you all,
Sue Smeall

To the Slack Family
We are so sorry for the loss of your mother and grandmother. She was one of the nicest and kindness people we ever had the privilege to know. Her family was the most important thing to her and of course you know that. She put up one heck of a fight, but we would expect nothing less of her. She will be missed.

I was saddened to hear of the loss of Suzanne. I am a volunteer driver with the American Cancer Society and had only recently been privileged to be able to help her with rides to her appointments. Always positive, friendly, kind, considerate–I only wish I could have met her sooner. A great lady who without a doubt will be missed by all whose life she touched.
