totallyMERRI honor photo book - Suzanne

My favorite Suzanne story is from when my mother, Edna, was turning 85 and I wanted to make a surprise party for
her. I mentioned it to Suzanne and all of a sudden, she took charge of the party! She insisted on having it at her house. She took care
of ordering all the food. She helped with sending the invitations. That party, held 19 years ago, was the greatest success! I have never
seen my mother so surprised. Suzanne even saw to it that her grandmother, my mother’s sister, Harriet, was there, all the way from
Florida. It took a lot of planning, and phone calls back and forth, but Suzanne did it, and she did it just exactly right. I could never
have accomplished it without her. ”. — Deanna
