Condolences
When I first met Susie, through Marc, I was captivated by the warmth and vivacity she brought to every interaction. Over the years that followed, my husband, Alf, and I always looked forward to our all too infrequent meetings, appreciating Susie’s acute intelligence, her adventurousness and her lively humour. Susie’s unfailing interest in others distracted attention from the health challenges she faced with such remarkable grace and determination. Her memory will be cherished and she will be missed by many.

It is a great tragedy to have lost Susie Sievers, and moreover much too soon. Susie will always live in her legacy of kindness, her smiles and laughter, her radiance and peaceful charm, echoing through time in our memories.
With healing wishes and condolences to all Susie's family and friends.
Mark,
Ralph & I are so sorry to learn of Susie's passing.
She had such an engaging personality and we instantly connected when we first met. We remember the wonderful evening and dinner together several years ago in Walnut Creek at that Peruvian restaurant and other occasions where there was lots of conversation. Susie was interested in so many different things and fun to be around. She will be missed.
We can only imagine how heavy your heart must be.
May her memory be a blessing to everyone who's lives she touched, especially yours.
Fondly, Kathie & Ralph
Nolan and I send condolences to all of Susie’s “special family” members. Her friendship circle was wide and we are honoured to have been part of that circle. New best friends are hard to find and Susie was truly the best! Thank you Marc and Barb for sharing some highlights of Susie’s life and career(s). Truly a life to celebrate.
Dear Marc we were so sorry to hear about Susie. I remember meeting you both for the first time and then coming over to our place for a little get together. Susie always had a wonderful smile and it was so nice to know how much she cared about us all on our street. I have enjoyed reading all about Susie and how she touched so many hearts and especially yours Marc. Please do not hesitate to call or drop in for a visit. Our door is always open and we welcome everyone.

SUSIE AND I were roommates at CHAMBERLAIN Scool of Retailing in Boston for two years. We became friends right away. It Was an allergy to cigarette smoke that the school put us together and continuing into the second year. SUSIE was fun...vivacous and always fun to be around. We got together in Toronto several times. I was always overjoyed she was a bridesmaid at my wedding and months later we attended Susie and Marc's wedding......Years later when my husband was on a business trip I was able to go with him and visited them in Walnut Creek...that was so special..........I will always miss SUSIE love and forever thoughts always
I have the dimmest of memories of meeting cousin Susie when we were very small. I don’t know if we met again until a family reunion in 2005. The questionnaire she filled out prior to that occasion indicated, by her bold handwriting, that she did not know a lot about her past but was keen to find out. “We will be there!” she indicated. We picked up the pace of meetings after that in California, Calgary and Toronto and exchanged news, mostly at Christmas. My passion for family history was nurtured with books on the topic that she and Barb bought for me. Her passion for wine stays with me in the glasses we were treated to at a tasting at Silver Oak. I shall drink to her tonight.
My first memories are of meeting Marc at an event from my husband's work; we were married with children at that point and Marc was a bachelor. The next time I saw Marc was at another work event, this one was at a hockey game. We were already on the ice and when I turned around I saw Marc come sailing in, and right behind him a gorgeous red-head! My husband said, oh yeah, here's Marc's new girlfriend, Susie. Wow! What a wonderful impression she made skating with such grace, and carrying with her a bounty of both beauty and personality. This started our couple-friendship way back in the late seventies in Toronto. Our friendship continued over the decades as they moved around, and we stayed put. A testimony to the fun we had over all those years--and many places--is that we still feel very close to both of them despite the distance. We will miss you darling Susie with your sparkling smile and infectious laughter, and you will remain in our hearts forever. Jane and Bill Empey
I first met Marc & Susie when they came into the showhome interested in possibly building on Spring Valley Lane, from that day forward Susie would rarely miss a week coming to visit me at the showhome to share some laughs and to keep me updated on the goings on in the area. Susie had a great sense of humour and was always fun to have laughs with. She was a very generous person with a big heart and was always kind and considerate to me. I know Marc this is a difficult time for you as I know the special bond the two of you had. Susie will be deeply missed and please know my thoughts and prayers are with you.

Liebe Susanne
wir sind traurig.
Nun bleiben uns nur noch die Erinnerungen-
an schöne gemeinsame Stunden mit Dir und Marc ( Jürgen ) in Hamburg und auch in Brunsbüttel.
In Liebe

We first met Susie and Marc when they moved into Spring Valley Lane. Susie was always upbeat and genuinely interested in all those around her. We got to know Marc and Susie better after the passing of our youngest daughter. Susie showed great kindness to us but especially to Susan as it seemed she really understood the magnitude of our loss and genuinely wanted to be part of our healing process. We enjoyed a couple of lovely evenings together at nice restaurants with Marc and Susie. Marc we saw how much you loved Susie in how you focused on her at those dinners. We know you will miss her. Please know we are here to comfort you. Susie will be missed.
Susie and Marc lived next door to us in Walnut Creek and we had the joy of spending many holidays and other activities together.
Her smile was infectious and was a good sport about being teased. When we shared a meal and Susie would bring a lovely delicious dish I would ask for the recipe she would say "sorry but it is a family recipe that we do not share" . After many years she finally confessed that meant that she had taken her serving piece to a local cater and they supplied the food. My life was enriched by having Susie next door.
It was wonderful to get to know Susie. She was always friendly and very witty in her conversations. It sounds like she led a very interesting and fulfilled life. It was great to know that Susie and Marc were able to see so much of the world together.
Our condolences go out to Marc and family. Susie will be missed.
Jan and Jim Gilbert
I first met Marc & Susie when they moved to Spring Valley. Each week Susie would come over for a visit to the showhome to see how I was doing and to share some laughs, she had a great sense of humour and always kept me up to date of the goings on in the area. Susie had a warm heart and was a very generous person. Marc, my deepest condolences to you, I know she will be deeply missed.
