My first love.

I have no memories of high school that didn't include Sue.  She lives in the memories of the people who loved her.

Sue is one of the few who made me feel worthwhile.

We always laughed and had a great time in school.

What a great person!!!!!

Sue was my best friend in Junior and Senior High. If had a nickel for every time we played the card game, "500", in their den, I would have a million dollars. Her parents were the nicest people, too. I still keep in touch with her sister, Sally, who lives in Florida. She sent me, this past year, a number of photos and keepsakes that belonged to Sue. 

I often think of Sue and the joy she brought to the lives of other people. I can still recall her crazy and zanny laugh. She was so full of life and had such a spirit. She was one of a kind. To me, she is the most missed member of the Class of '67.

Thinking of my friend, Sue Novak, on her birthday today, June 4, 1949.   She was such a happy, fun girl.

Sue was one of a kind and my best friend in junior high and high school. Remembering her on her birthday. God Bless, Susie.

I too remember her well.   I had forgotten she went so early- and not soon after her husband died.  We've lost a lot of our friends and classmates...

Sue and I worked at Xerox in the late 70s and it was great seeing her after losing touch after high school.  She still had the same great personality she shared with all of us at Wash.  She had to suffer through the loss of her husband and her loss in the same year at such a young age was a true tragedy.  She is missed.
