Guestbook

  1. Sue was a special friend. We were next door neighbors at Riverside Apts for several years. We did suppers and cookouts together. She had the best smile and laugh. I have a picture of her riding my sons tricycle with her legs thrown over the handle bars. So many good, funny memories. RIP, SUE.

  2. Sue was a special person. Absolutely one of the best people I’ve ever worked with, and a friend. My condolences to the family.

  3. Having known Sue ever since she married Bruce and enjoyed her company when she was a member of the Rocky Mount BPW, it is with sincere sympathy that we note her passing. She is in a better place, although she will be missed by Bruce, her entire family and her many friends. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
