    JB, Marla and family, We are so sorry to hear about Sue. I don't know there was ever a time when we were around here that she wasn't smiling and cracking jokes. She was always able to make me laugh, whatever the circumstance. Please know that we will be thinking about and praying for all of you at this terrible time. I have no doubt she is in a much better place. Our thoughts and prayers are with all of you. Janet, Brian, Holly, Valaree, and Nicklaus

    I pray for you Marla and know that you will find comfort knowing that you were the pride of Sue's life. You must have thousands of wonderful memories. She could do anything!

    Marla & family, We want to extend our deepest sympathies to you and your family. I know it wasn't easy the past few months nor will be the coming months. It is hard to lose a Mother but you have so many wonderful memories that will get you through until you meet again. Wow...what poise you have shown through all of this. Your Mother had to have been so proud! Who wouldn't be! She obviously did a great job of being your Mom. I was honored to have known your Mom and to be her sister-in-law for a short while. t I always thought so much of her, your grandparents, and the entire Spath family. Take care! Love, Marsha & Lynn Brown
