IN MEMORY OF SUSAN WOLTHUIS WILLIAMS


Susan and Whitney

We had the news you never expect nor desire.  John's dear sister, Susan, passed away very unexpectedly from complications of  a surgery.  It is tragic and devastating.  We will miss her more than we can express.  

Susan was an extraordinary woman!  She was a wonderful wife and mother.  She loved her family so much and they were her greatest happiness.  She raised three amazing children!  Susan was extremely righteous and tried to live the gospel each day.  She was courageous and was willing to stand up for every right principle, even when it wasn't popular.  She was such a great example to us.  She was a peacemaker and longed for unity and harmony.  She loved her granddaughter, Ruby.  Ruby was such a delight to her.  Susan's best friend outside of her husband, Richard, was her daughter, Whitney.  They enjoyed every second of time they could spend together.  Her sons, Richie and Micah, also brought pure joy to her life.  Susan was a great influence on many associates and children, as she was a speech pathologist for Wasatch School District.  Susan was a very giving and charitable woman.  She was beautiful inside and out!  She was kind and always a lady.  The world is definitely darker without her glowing presence.  

WE LOVE YOU SUSAN!

I agree with every word you wrote. Susan was a kind person. She never expected anything in return for her loving and caring acts of giving. She touched the lives of many individuals. She will be remembered by many. May the Lord bless her family at this time of sorrow.

Veronica--
Thank you for your kind words, thoughts and prayers. I can now say I have really endured a trial in my life. My mom was always one who would not let her children suffer--so I can honsetly say that I have never felt so much sadnesses. I always thought of my mother as a permanent fixture in my earthly life; I know God's plan for us was much larger, though. Your family's constant support will help me mend and will also help my family. Thank you for being such a wonderful aunt and for raising such a wonderful family that I am happy to still have. Whit

Veronica,
I have not checked your blog in days because on my side bar it still had the baby shower title. I just read Em's blog today and heard this news. I'm so very sorry. All my love to you and the family.
Love,
Jill
