I remeber sue: Sue, I'm sorry I was there for you more. I was to caught up in my own affairs. I will make certain that the Green party never forgets you.

Sue, you and Judy introduced me to bluegrass music when we were 16. The Screamin' Border Boys never had better groupies. I think of you at every festival and I always will. You were always a leader, whether founding our conservation club (You, me, Helen) at age 12 or sledding down Sue's Steep Slope or Ali's Accident, over the barely frozen brook...I just always thought we'd cross paths at least a few more times this lifetime. You gave me a pair of pierced earrings for my 18th birthday, because I couldn't get my ears pierced until then. I hung onto those damn earring for almost 10 years and then lost them in my last move "back home". Finally did get my ears pierced on my 30th birthday, and didn't have the turquoise that you & Judy brought back from your cross country adventure. Mom still has the bronze sculpture that she crafted when she was taking the sculpture class and you were the model. It has been on the windowsill over the kitchen sink for so long, I think of it as a permanent fixture. There's Sue, relaxing on the windowsill. Graceful and beautiful. Mom did a great job capturing your spirit in your posture and pose. So now I'm thinking about a quote by Seneca..."The comfort of having a friend may be taken away, but not that of having had one." Your heart was so huge, and your convictions so strong and right, and your true friends, so very many. I count myself lucky to have traveled in your circle, if only for a little while. Next time we meet I'll be wearing those turquoise earrings.
This is a beautiful site and I want to thank Dianna and all who post here for it. I unfortunately wasn't lucky enough to know Sue well--I knew her through friends and through school. Nevertheless, I am so sad at this tragedy.
When I think of Sue Daniels, the word "kindness" comes immediately to mind, immediately followed by "compassion", "integrity", and "peacefulness". I know Sue was dedicated to making this world a better place, and even those, like me, who only knew her tangentially, benefited from her presence. Whenever I saw her at school, she would greet me with a sweet smile, stop, and ask how I was doing, what was going on in my life. And you know, the difference between that and anyone else who greets you with a "how's it going?" in the hall is that Sue *really meant it*. She was genuinely interested, and when I had good news, she showed true joy in sharing in the news.
I look forward to reading everyone else's memories. I know I didn't know Sue as well as most of you, but I know I will never forget her, and I'm a better person for having known her.
Sue was an outstanding soul...beautiful, thoughtful, patient...these words barely express all she was. Her presence will be with the world forever, for she left amazing marks wherever she went.
Her spririt shines in the in the smiles of all who know her, her kindness given a thousand times by those thouched by her.
Sue, I love you immensly.
Peace,

My loving boyfriend wrote a few words to me to help me during this tragey. (yes, he is the type to bring me coffee in bed and leave love notes on the marker board).
Here are his words:
Through sorrow and sadness I will not be caught in the madness. But I will rejoice in the wonderful time I've had, and the loving memories we've shared. And those are mine forever. -Keith Manning
Peace,

Although I didn't know Sue the most, I remember a wonderful woman who taught me how to love salamanders at 10pm at night on the mountain top. Someone I looked up to as a role model while trying to become a wildlife biologist. When that dream fell short, I became an activist, a feminist and took my Masters degree in Public and International Affairs, with a specialization in Gender and Development; Sue, she was right there with me. You never missed a Take Back the Night Rally or an important event, such as The Clothesline Project or Women's Month. You were a sister who stood by us, helping us to defend what we believe in because you, Sue, also believed in social justice.
My saddest thought is that Sue is so much more than a white-colored t-shirt on The Clothesline Project. When people read her shirt (as I know one will be made), remember that this was a wonderful, strong and smart woman...she was our community, and a piece of our community has now died along with her.
Sue, you will be missed sister, just know that.
With much love and many tears,
Mary Mayzel

The memories of Sue… I don’t even know where to begin. I think Sue was casually leaning on Sarah’s round pen watching Linda work a horse the first time we met. After that it became a continuous stream of riding, learning, growing and sharing together. I feel so lucky to have shared so much with such a special person. I remember the trips to Floyd, the Alexander lessons, and sharing our lives over coffee after lessons. I remember the horsemanship clinics, learning from Linda in the driving rain or freezing cold and warming up over the fire in the middle of the arena. I remember bringing Sister home and seeing the joy in your heart and your eyes every time you were near that horse for as long as you were together. You were always eager to take another lesson or attend another clinic. You knew your priorities in life and always adjusted your schedule to fit in the things you valued. You were an inspiration in courage and determination. Your openness, love and passion helped me see and share new things in life. Because of you, I listen to the birds, and notice the streams. I’m also aware of world issues I would not have known. When you decided to do something you studied it to perfection. The picture of harmony with you and Sister near the end was beautiful. The last time we were together was a very special yet normal evening together. You read Evie a story, we practiced Yoga and Alexander work, and then we made cookies. Like usual we talked more about my concerns than yours. But that was so typical of Sue. We shared books, and then said goodbye. I never imagined I wouldn't see you again. I miss you and carry you in my heart. I wish you were around longer to share more of your magic smile with Evelyn so she’d have those memories too. She has been asking where’s Sue? The only response I can give that she’s in our heart.

Well, thinking of all her layers. And, can a person make herself one way or another. Sue so lovely. So love you. Funny how so many people could see how deep, wide and narrow and full and flowing she was/is. Like water with so many lights? So many people could see the beauty. Striking, I guess. So many layers.
Words. Uncommunicative. Good thing we shared her.

Sue:
You were a passionate supporter of the first amendment. If only you had also shown such commitment to the the second amendment, you would still be with us today!
When seconds counted, help was minutes away. :-(
