Carole Sue Hull, my twin brother, Roger's wife, died suddenly from a skull fracture in a fall on stairs leading to their Key Largo rental where they were wintering the evening of March 25, 2014.

Sue and Roger at our high school reunion in 2011

 Sue


Sue was a mother, wife, and lover,
a unique individual quite like no other.

A friend to many, a helper to all,
we all miss her so, after her fall.

Sue had seen hardship, in her early days,
but managed quite well, in many ways.

A super marketer of office supplies,
she touched many business owners' lives.

Sue recognized good health at an early age,
She dedicated her life to being a health sage.

Her family around her, Sue defied the years,
into a happy retirement of service and cheers.

Life of the party, Sue's laughter could be heard,
and when she spoke, ears perked for every word.

A hostess of grace and with great fineness,
her home was her palace decorated the best.

Sue loved the outdoors and taking long walks,
now she's walking forever in her friends' talks.

Though Sue is no longer with us, she's with us still,
we can still hear her footsteps, over the hill.

My deepest, deepest condolences, Ron, to both you and Roger. This touches me deeply as I, too, have just tragically lost my own sister-in-law to inoperable brain lesions. The funeral was just a week ago and my brother has been staying with me. Your visual and description are beautiful and bear so many similarities with our very own Jan. Extraordinary and tragic yet their lives leave such grace, health and life. A personal and heartfelt tribute, thank you. Love always, Kate xx

So very sad to hear of your sister-in-law's death, Ron. This is one of the most loving poem concerning the demise of a loved one I've ever read. It is constantly, throughout the poem, uplifting and happy as I am positive Sue was in life. Such a positive writing concerning a heartbreaking happening.
