    Sue was such a wonderful person. I am filled with sadness as I still cannot believe she has passed. I enjoyed working with her for five years at NAMI-CCNS. She had such passion for our organization. She often came into our office really motivated about something that would be helpful for our organization. Her excitement was captivating. Sue loved NAMI. I will miss her very much as my co-worker and friend.

    Sue, you will be missed! You were the face of NAMI CCNS. Your passion for NAMI CCNS was contagious. I can’t imagine walking back through the office doors and not seeing you at your desk saying, “oh, good, you’re here!” ❤️

    We are so sad to hear this news. We knew Sue and Todd through volunteering at the NAMI Walks. She was a special lady and a powerful force. Sincerest condolences to her family.

    Susan was so kind to me. I met Susan at a NAMIWalks Manager Training. Susan welcomed me and gave me such reassurance in my abilities and tips on how to run my walk event. I know Susan will be greatly missed.

    Sue and I both worked for NAMI and had been acquainted for many years as fellow development directors working for different affiliates. She was a tremendous asset to the NAMI organization. She helped grow NAMI CCNS over the years into a successful affiliate by cultivating donors and funders to help sustain the organization’s vital programs. Sue’s passion and commitment to the issue of mental health was inspiring. I am so saddened to hear of her passing and will miss her spirit and can-do attitude. My condolences to Sue’s family and her NAMI colleagues.

    I was so sad to learn of Sue’s passing. She was such an amazing, charismatic, sharp woman. Her dedication and commitment to NAMI were inspiring. Her spirit was warm. Sue was just … fun. Delightful, authentically driven, social, influential, and a real force of nature. Loved her. 🙁
