I lived on Kensington St. and Susan lived on Autumn/ we could cut through the Merovonich yard to each other's houses. As children, we often played together, but my favorite memory is Susan's sympathy and wise counsel through a love heartbreak in my freshman year. Wishing her friends and family many happy memories of her.

I was so saddened to read of the passing of Susan. She was my best friend all through high school and was my bridesmaid at my wedding. We remained friends throughout the years and while there was distance between us, we still had long talks on the telephone. I have lost one of my best friends. She was the nicest person. R.I.P. Susan I shall miss you immensely.
