My aunt Sue never said a bad thing about anybody. She had a lot of love in her heart and she shared it openly

The boys and I grew up togerther in Belleville and have been great friends for over 30 plus years. Everytime I was at her house she treated me like one of her own sons. The world lost a great women and mother today.

One of the nicest people I have known for over 35 years. Devoted mother, and a huge heart.
