She will also be deeply missed by her caretakers Laura, Paula, Terry, Amanda, Cathy, Lynn, Marilyn and all others who worked with her at the Burdick House and at Hartwick. But she will be especially missed by her kitty Princess.
Suzie was a kind and giving spirit who would often spend time at the SPCA visiting the animals and making donations to support them. She loved to honor veterans and would go out of her way to thank them. She also loved coffee, playing BINGO, casinos, scratch offs, Paw Patrol, adventures with her bestie Laura and her favorite person was Santa Clause.
She will be deeply missed, but we all know she's happily wearing those wings, dancing and playing in the sunshine with all of her pets that she gathered when she stopped at Rainbow Bridge.
