Cheryl and Kim. Thanks so much for your lovely messages. Suzanne is proud.

Todd Cosper, who is a Pastor and personal friend of Suzanne, did a wonderful job presiding over her service. It was heart warming, and when we were talking with Suzanne's brother, Ken, he would say to us, oh yea, Suzanne's mentioned your name, Suzanne your name. Suzanne had such a close relationship with her family and her friends. In fact, if you didn't know Suzanne, she never said a bad thing about anyone, but was honest and sincere. We loved her so much and it won't be same without her. I do know one thing, I believe Suzanne's death will bring many of us in the Atlanta area together to become better friends with each other and show each other the love and respect that we all deserve. We need to make more of an effort to get together with each other, play with our puppies together, and just take the time to deepen our friendships, despite the distance we are from each other in the Atlanta area. I know I am going to try to be a better friend in the spirit of Suzanne. We do not know how much time we have on earth, and this has opened my eyes, along with Jane's death earlier this month, that we can't count on being here tomorrow and we need to make every second count and really take the time to go out of our way for our friends and family. I know on a personal note I am doing that with my Mom, who just moved in with me over the holidays, and I'm glad to have this bond with her at this time.

The amount of people there showed how much everyone cared for her. She was described as a friend with a capital F. That she was. I am heartbroken that her name will be read by Bart at the National and Gary will ring the bell. Or is it the other way around? Whatever - we have lost a Friend and a family member, and I wish we would all treat one another like family and understand that there might not be a tomorrow to tell them how much we care for them. And when it comes right down to it, I don't care where the National is - I only care that my family will gather there with me and we will celebrate our dogs and our love for them and each other.
