I went to school with Susan and remember her sweet generous nature. She was truly a special person with a loving heart. I am so sad to hear that she was sick and has passed at such a young age.

Susan always had a joyful, contagious smile every time I saw her out with the horses and people of Stable-Spirit. Her sweetness and her caring heart will be missed by all those she touched. Keeping her family in my thoughts and prayers.

The last time I saw Susan she had just finished grooming several Stable Spirit horses and was getting in her car to leave. I was just going to wave good bye, but she made a point to stop and give me a hug. I will not forget her sweet spirit and smile. Her life has made a difference in mine. She is already missed.

Susan will always hold a special place in my heart. I met her at Stable-Spirit last year while grooming the horses. We shared a lot but mostly laughed a lot. I felt at home with Susan as she made you feel like you had known her for a lifetime. I will miss you Susan..share your love and smiles with those in Heaven~

Susan's aura was so soft and gentle. It was a joy to be in her company. Our activities together at Stable Spirit were so pleasant and calm. There will be a big gap where we had had time together with her.
