    The world of library finance has lost one of the best. And for many of us, this is the loss of a friend as well. Sue & I were two LEO wives & we could never figure out which side of the table to choose at lunch. She had an incredibly positive spirit & was a true inspiration. Wishing her family comfort & peace.

    I never met Sue but I heard about what a wondeful person and friend she was to others. I’m so very sorry for your loss. What a joy to know she is a child of the King. She is with Jesus and she has no more pain and suffering. It’s such a blessing to know that. I pray that the memories you have the the comfort from our Savior will ease the sadness in your soul.
    I leave you with some words from Psalm 34:18 “The LORD is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.” Lean on Him in your darkest hours.
    Love in Christ, Nancy
