Don and Family,
I'm sorry that I was away when you held a celebration of Sue's life. She...made a difference in my life. Her courage, spirit, and love for her family were truly inspirational. I was priviledged to know her.

I still remember the first time I met Sue when she would not let me enter the hallway behind the counter and made me go back outside and around the Parkland LSO building to attend Inservice. I always admired her attention to detail and to people around her. She was an asset to everyone's life.##imported-begin##LEO AND NANCY BRABEC##imported-end##
Sue was a loving and caring person. I worked with Sue as a co-worker, trainer, and Supervisor. She was always upbeat and willing to try something new. I remember the day that Don walked into the Bremerton office. Her eyes beamed and she said, "he is mine!" Sue lived her life to the fullest. She will be missed.##imported-begin##Gary Zumwalt Linda Zumwalt##imported-end##
Sue and I were married 23 years and were always best friends. We made a point of never going to bed unhappy with each other, and it was an easy thing to do, because she never held a grudge.
She was always interested in everything and everybody. She loved to talk to people and had an amazing ability to read faces. She never dwelt on the bad times in her life. She would always say, in an upbeat way, "I'm still here".
Sue never lost the thrill of going places, whether it was somewhere she had been many times, or some place entirely new. I hope the thrill is still with her now.
She will be with me in my heart for the rest of my life. I loved her so much and miss her so.##imported-begin##Don Briggs##imported-end##
I was so happy when sue asked me if she could call me mother;I felt she was including me in the love she had for her mother.

sue will live forever in my heart. Mother##imported-begin##Ruth Briggs##imported-end##
My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.##imported-begin##Karla LaManna##imported-end##
Sue was the most caring person and she loved her family more than anything. She always had such funny stories to share about her sons and the life that they all shared. She loved Don and was so thankful for all of his support and love through the years. Having worked with Sue for years I have many memories that I will always cherish. I will miss her dearly.##imported-begin##Robbert & Theresa Van Cleave##imported-end##
I knew Sue for many years as a neighbor and a friend. She always had a lot of courage and a really great sense of humor. She was so proud of her family. I am glad that she and Don were able to take so many wonderful trips together. Sue will be missed.
