I knew Sue through Aida. I know they were best friends. I will see and talk to her when she came around to see Aida as we live the same complex. She was always pleasant happy and laughable. I did not know she passed away so I'm giving you my condolences now. I will surely miss her. Fly high Sue and watch over your family and friends🙏🏾😇🕊️💔❤️🌹
I met Carolyn as a bus driver for SCT. Taking her to her appointments. I can speak for all the drivers in agreement with what's already been posted. Carolyn was one of those rare sorts of woman that are what I would call a lady. She didn't demand respect but received it wherever she went. With her precious and feminine ways you knew she had class. She related to me of a difficult upbringing, obviously over coming that with a serious faith in God which she radiated.
I am so sorry to hear the loss of such a sweet lady! I met Sue when I became her mother’s hospice nurse and from that moment on our a friendship grew. She was kind and thoughtful with a love for her family and God that was apparent from the first time I met her. They say that as we pass thru this world that we leave pieces of ourselves on all that we touch. Sue has touched many hearts and will be sorely missed. Keeping family and friends close to heart and in my thoughts and prayers!

I did not know Carolyn Rice but was privileged to have known her sisters, Edith and Betty Farrar and their husbands and some of their children. Good people and children of God. Have attended church with some of them. Our loss is heaven's gain.
I AM SO SORRY TO HEAR OF THE PASSING OF SUE WHOM I HAVE KNOWN FOR A LONG TIME. I REMEMBER WORKING AT THE CAKE MIX AND SHE WOULD ALWAYS FIX MY HAIR BECAUSE I HAD LONG HAIR SHE WOULD PUT IT ON MY HEAD IN CURLS. SUE WAS ALWAYS SO SWEET AND KIND SHE WAS A HELPING SERVANT OF GOD. DENNY WAS THE LOVE OF HER LIFE AND HER CHILDREN MEANT EVERYTHING TO HER. SHE WAS VERY ACTIVE IN CHURCH PLAYING THE PIANO OR ORGAN CHURCH WAS HER LIFE. DOUG HER SON IS THE PASTOR AT SPARTA LANDMARK PENTECOSTAL CHURCH IN SPARTA, ILLINOIS. SUE GO RIDE HIGH TO THAT MANSION IN TH SKY!
