I’m so sorry to hear that Susan passed away. I remember her as Annette , Andre and Mary’s little sister. I was reintroduced to her one day at Sobeys. Having a brother myself around the same age as Susan i can only imagine how much she was loved and how she will be missed. I am truly sorry.

I am deeply saddened to hear of Sue’s passing. I had the fortune of getting to know Sue when she worked in Records Management at the Department of Education. She was a ray of sunshine in our office. She was so kind, talented, knowledgeable, witty, and always so much fun at our work events and outings. Sending sincere condolences to Sue’s family and friends.

I first met Sue while completing my MLIS at Dalhousie. It was great getting to reconnect with her when I started my career with the Province. She was such a cool person, full of knowledge and really helped me out a lot in my early days as a records analyst. She was so kind and generous with her time. Sending my deepest sympathies to Sue's family.

Sue was such a beautiful soul. She and I met at King's College in the fall of 1987, and became close friends. I will never forget how she meticulously typed up her term papers (while eating sunflower seeds) and how much joy we shared learning about Chaucer from Anne Higgins and British Poetry from Professor Fraser. She was so bright and always had the best taste in film and theatre--although I never understood her love of Seven Seals. Suekins as I called her cheered me up so much in those days. Someone who always looked on the brighter side of things. Thank you for your love and your friendship. My heart goes out to all your family and close friends. You will be so missed.

Sue was never afraid to be herself. She was joyful, original and sparkling. From the age of 12 she was already showing me how to live. She enriched my life in a hundred ways. I am devastated by her passing.
To Mary, Annette, André and family, my sincerest condolences. I wish you some measure of comfort during this painful time.

I worked with Sue once on a play called The Mountain Goat’s Gift in 1997, along with her lifelong friend Shannon Sponagle. I was an aspiring young director and Sue was already an experienced stage manager who helped keep things on track. I’m thinking of her understated humour and sense of irony that seemed to emerge from a deep well of wisdom. I am grateful for that little span of weeks those many moons ago. Be at rest, Sue.

I had the privilege to get to know Sue while working with her for a few years on the corporate records management team. With her kindness, warmth, humour and wit she made work fun. Sue was a very intelligent and cultured person and had many amusing anecdotes ranging from her varied experiences working in theatre to her pets whom she so dearly loved. Not to detract from her competence, knowledge, expertise and the value she brought to the records management team and province. Sue and I forged a genuine personal friendship that has endured in the almost ten years since I left the records management team. That is unusual for me and speaks to how special a person Sue was. I will greatly miss her and my heart goes out to her family and other friends.

I never met Sue in person. She was a presence on social media posting charming photos of Oz, a large and apparently ill tempered cat. I expected that sometime we would meet while she was walking Charlie, the dog who would rather not walk. Our last online interaction, the day after Halloween, concerned a swell twig broom apparently abandoned by a witch. Independently we had both noticed it on a path beside the BiHi and posted photos. We decided that the broom should be presented to a wicker woman who was attached to a nearby power pylon. The wicker woman and her broom will be my reminder of a remarkable sounding woman.

My earliest memories of Sue include walking home from St. Joseph’s Elementary School with Kelly Kyte. Years later Sue would be the one to go to for the best book to read or coolest song to listen to. I remember her kind smile, love of cats and strong intellect. She will be missed. Heartfelt condolences to all of her family and friends.

It was a joy to work with Sue. She had so many silly anecdotes that always made any project better. I will miss our chats about our dogs, coffee meetings, and the many links to new Fluevogs that always popped into my inbox. One of my favourite memories is Sue telling me that she somehow seemed to collect Susans as friends — a little clique of Sues. I’m not a Sue, but I’m all the better for knowing one.
My heartfelt condolences to Sue’s family and loved ones during this difficult time.

I will miss Sue whenever I watch Buffy, listen to Joel Plaskett, and see a pair of Fluevogs on sale.
I hear her voice in my ear encouraging me to travel, to go to the farmer's market, make a plan with a friend, and cook a meal for people I love.
We got to travel together again this year and we went to our favourite spots in Montreal--many coffees at Cafe Olympico, soup dumplings, and a slice of kouign-amann. We were front-row at the Nick Cave show, exploring galleries, and dining at Beauty's and Leonard Cohen's old favourite breakfast spot. What a blessing that we got to go one last time and do the things that we loved together.
I cannot fathom that she is gone. It has crushed me. All I can do is focus on what a gift it is to have known her for nearly 20 years. I think we inspired bravery in one another--to book those trips, to seek out beauty in all its forms. I will hold her and this feeling in my heart--to go, to do, to try, to connect with people and the world.
I am so proud to have been her friend. How lucky we were.

Sue was a dear friend of mine for over 30 years, since we first worked together on a theatre project in Halifax in 1993. While we moved in similar circles in university, it took making strange and fragmentary postmodern work in basements and galleries (to small but dedicated audiences) before we really clicked. And while I’ve always had some difficulty making many lasting friends, Sue made friendship seem easy. We fell into an easy rapport on that project and never let up. When I moved away for good in 1996, we stayed in regular touch, first through letters, then emails, then texts. And we always saw each other whenever I returned home. She was both an extraordinarily supportive and gracious friend and someone I could rely on for honest and unvarnished opinions about everything that mattered, particularly what books and movies were worth my time. We didn’t always agree, but I always looked forward to our discussions. The last time I saw her in person was in the summer of 2024. I was in Halifax directing a two-week workshop of a project I’d somehow managed to convince her to use her vacation time to work on with me! It was a delightful artistic reunion—for both of us—and I was hoping we’d get to do it again someday. Sadly, that is just one of many things I will now miss about you, Sue. Thanks for your years of friendship. You were a true original.

Whenever I think of her, it’s of gorgeous smile and laugh, her smarts, silly as heck humour, insight and warmth. A beautiful person. My sincere condolences to her family and loved ones, and grief at a life taken too soon. She will delight the angels.

Sue was such a lovely, kind person and a good friend. We met at King's and were roommates for a time as well. We worked on some plays together and went out to listen to lots of live music. We made a point of staying in touch when I moved back to PEI and I was always excited to spend time with her when I came to visit. My partner James became good friends with her as well and we are so sorry for your loss. She was a truly wonderful person.

Sue, you not only had an impact on my own life as a colleague, but also on my mom and aunt.
It was a pleasure to work with someone so patient, knowledgeable, and down-to-earth about records management. Not many people inject humour into records management, but you did alongside your considerable expertise. I will always appreciate that!
I also really enjoyed our conversations about music, live or recorded, and films together. Beyond the tasks at hand, these were always highlights of the workday for me too. I won't be able to listen to Prefab Sprout the same way.
We were very fortunate to know someone as wonderful as Sue, and I extend my deepest condolences to her loved ones as well.

I had the immense pleasure of working with Sue for some years as a Corporate Records Analyst with the Province of Nova Scotia. She was brilliant and so knowledgeable and such an incredible and supportive mentor. She had the most amazing wit and sense of humor. No one could crack a quip quite like Sue did.
Sue shared endless and often hilarious stories about her beloved four-legged companions. Her baking, if you were fortunate enough for her to bake for you, was legendary and everything stopped in the office for at least a few minutes when Sue brought out goodies to share.
She had marvelous style (all those dresses and sunglasses!), and we had many, many chats about music and art and concerts.
Mary, Andre, Annette and especially Andrew – know that she spoke of you all often, and with love. My heart is broken for you all.
To quote Nick Cave, ”Farewell to the girl with the sun in her hair.”

I remember Sue from the coop. She was quiet but didn't miss a trick. I admired her focus and calm and was very happy when she got the job with the province and soon after was able to buy a house. So very well done! In a strange circle that life provides at times, my son, who was young in the coop, ended up working for Sue in records management! And as my family is also from Sydney, Sue and my sister knew each other. I am sorry to hear this news, I hope the family can find peace in the days to come.

I loved working with Sue. She was kind, approachable, and brought a lightness to work that was a gift to have in our office. Her nick name to some folks was "guru Sue" because of her creative ability to find solutions to complex issues.
I will miss her saying when she has either had too much or too little coffee, and her unexpected giggles during meetings or quiet times in the office. I will miss our conversations about library school, travelling, and her love of Nick Cave and Fluevog shoes.
Sue was a treasure to the records community and a colleague whose presence and warmth will be deeply missed. I will never forget Sue and the love she showed us all.

I am so sorry for this unbelievable loss. Sue was the best. She was very good to me- she’d put me up when I was in town, she’d have me over for dinner, and she was a great colleague and mentor when we worked together in RM in the Gov of NS, and she was the best friend one could ever want. I wish I’d been to see her more. I was going to come to Halifax to celebrate her retirement and I am gutted she did not get to enjoy what she so definitely deserved. This is such a sad time for her family and many friends.
