My Aunt Sue was one of a kind who loved her family with all her heart and I will miss her greatly!
When we asked my Great Aunt what she thought we should name our baby boy, she paused for a fraction of a second and responded, “Sue!” to the delight of everyone in hearing distance. She was a gem and will be missed dearly. Love to Christy, Derek, Kinsey and Sawyer.
Simply Elegant Spathiphyllum was purchased for the family of Sue Young.
My Aunt Sue was 1 of a kind. She is actually my great aunt, but in my book she is my Aunt Sue. Loved that woman, she was and always will be 1 of my all time favorite people. She was the best. I’m heartbroken but I know she is with Homer, Nana n Papa right now ❤️
Aunt Sue always put everyone else above her own needs or wants. She did not want to be in the spotlight but loved 🥰 watching Christy and her grandchildren shine! Personally, I have numerous cherished memories of learning to ski, holiday parties at her home, Starrettes practicing, cheer practices and homecoming preps with her by my side. I loved hearing all the stories of her and my dad growing up and the many times he teased her! Sue was a loving mother, grandmother, sister and aunt. We’ll love her forever but she’s already missed terribly. Karen Freeman McEntire
