In loving memory of our amazing Wife, Mother, and Aana.
Suzanne was a dear friend. Every time we ran into each other (usually Carrs) we caught up and shared stories and laughter. We also shared our faith in God and how He has worked to better our lives. We always made plans to share Nikipaq (Native food), but never got around to it. I always admired Suzanne’s high intellect and her work with ISER. She had a warm disposition that was contagious. I will miss Suzanne but rejoice that she has entered the gates of Heaven. May she Rest in God’s Peace.🙏🏼🌹

Suzanne was a teacher. She loved her heritage and taught anyone who wanted to learn about it. She exuded a warm, kind, loving heart. She was a strong soul who loved her faith and shared her love for God with myself, her sister in Christ. I, Cindy Sharp and Mike Sharp were honored when we were asked to be the God parents of their daughter Janelle. We traveled to Alaska with our son, David and took my niece Kylie Brown once. But total, had visited 3 different times. During these visits Tim, Sue and the girls, Janelle and Rachelle always had some adventure planned for us. They all were the host with the most. All our memories with them were blessed beyond measure. Suzanne we admired you so much and you will forever be in our hearts. So until we see you again my sister may our God raise you up on Eagles wings and may the angels great you in Paradise.

Smoked salmon on the table, maybe a baby on her back snuggled into a qaspeq. Steady, pouring love and laughter into every room and soul she touched.

My sister came home from college the first summer and I had my brothers tee shirt on that was a figure of "the bird" it said something but I cannot remember what it said when Randy took that picture of us she put her arm in the right place for my message of rebellion to be not readable!

Sue was a great asset to Alaska Yearly Meeting of Friends and Anchorage Friends Church! She will be remembered not only for her organizational skills, thorough planning, execution of various projects, etc., but also for her love for her God! I enjoyed our conversations because of her encouragement and laughter!
— Aurora SampsonSuzanne was a beautiful person inside and out. Her positive energy and attitude were contagious to those around her. My husband and I had the opportunity to visit a beautiful state of Alaska few times and stayed with Sue and Tim before and after our fishing trip. Sue always took me walk or hike and showed me beautiful scenery around. I really enjoyed her company. We shared recipes how to cook halibut and salmon. We wished each other during the Holidays. She loved her family, specially her grandchildren. Oh, I miss texting Sue and sending her the pictures of my garden harvest. I miss her dearly.
