Jane and I were friends with Ray and Sue before they were married. . We were in each others weddings, only one week apart. We shared many of life’s events together, from child births, to sports, to card games, to Church events. Living only a very short distance from each other., interactions were frequent and pleasant.
Both of our families moved from the Blackwatch area about the same time.
It hardly seems possible that was over twenty years ago. We cherish our memories of our families’ interactions and pray that Ray and Sue are now happily reunited.
Todd and the Merkel family. I’m so sorry for your loss. Suzanne will always be remembered as a loving mother and grandmother. She’s in a better place now and isn’t suffering anymore. My family and I send our condolences. We’ll be praying for all of you during this difficult time. God Bless.
