I am so sorry for your loss. I have missed seeing Sue at the food pantry for some time. I have missed her laughter and jokes we had with each other. The last time we talked I thought she was gaining strength. My prayers are with you.

I worked with Les many moons ago and it was way back then that I met Sue. Les and I kept in touch over the years and the many miles between us, for we share a mutual love for the game of golf (as Craig may recall). When Les and I would talk, I recall on occasion he might mention that Sue couldn’t come, go or do something as it would stress her health, which is how I came to understand that Sue’s body fought with her, for many years. What an amazingly strong life spirit Sue Damlo had to keep up the fight. The fight and struggle is now over, but Sue your spirit of life, was then and is now, an inspiration to all you leave behind. Sue Damlo Rest In Peace

I am so saddened and shocked by this… Sue was everything you could hope and want for your children as a daycare provider… Tom and I were Blessed beyond measure to have her be such a big piece of the parenting puzzle. We are forever grateful. She had amazing Birthday parties, Christmas parties, preschool and Love for Children! We will hold tight to these wonderful memories of her… Peace and healing to you Les, Christy and Craig.
