Kay, Sending Big Warm Pink Hugs & Fuzzies with lots of love across the miles with what I hope are some words that may give you some comfort through your grief over the loss of your Mom & Best Friend. (*_*)Sue forever changed my life when I met her & immersed my self in her Mary Kay Pink Bubble with Mary Kay Cosmetics 31+ yrs ago. She was my friend, mentor, confidante & became another "Mom" to me over the years. I am saddened by her passing but I am @ peace knowing she is with our God, the Lord Jesus Christ in heaven. I just know she & Mary Kay Ash are sharing memories & that she's helping her paint Heaven Mary Kay Pink! Her Passion for making a difference in other peoples lives will live on in the hearts & memories of all who knew & loved her. Her Legacy as a Mom, Daughter, Friend, Leader of Women & Advocate for Victims Rights show her time here on this earth was a rich blessing in all the lives she touched. Kay, My wish for you as you say goodbye for the moment, is that you will hold her memories close in the days & hours to come. Please take comfort knowing she is with God, @ peace now & that SHE made a Difference.I wrote Sue a letter last Fall that really says so much about how much I loved her & the difference she made in my life thru the years, both personally & professionally. I wanted to share it with you because I can't say how I feel about your Mom any better than I did then…….Sue, I love you so much. You have always been my guiding light, both in Mary Kay & in my personal life. You are much more than my Senior Director & Mentor…..You have always been My other "Mom". Your guidance over the years has helped me through some very difficult moments in my marriage (and continues too I might add, remind me to share a conversation I had with John recently about communication! LOL! Afterwards, I thought, Sue would have liked that!) & countless other ways. Your Spiritual Guidance is my gift from God daily & I thank him constantly for giving me such a Wise & Insightful Guardian Angel whose chuckle I can hear in my mind's eye just when I need it most. I can hear you sharing with me as if it were today…"It's not where you start, it's where you finish"… that has stuck with me since I was a new consultant… I have shared that phrase & many more "Sue-isms" with new recruits religiously too many times to count. You have been my Guardian Angel who whispers in my minds' ear when I need a bit of inspiration with some balance…LOL! . you have always been able to bring me back to center & inspired me to be my best…you are my forever friend, Dearest Sue. I have missed your presence & your warm hugs sooo very much since you have moved to San Diego, Sue. Your love & support from the day I began my journey along the Pink Path & you entered my life have been a blessing I have cherished, then & now. Your words of wisdom & insights over the years have helped me through some very difficult times & I share them constantly with others. Enough for today. Thanks for accepting me as I am, Dear Friend. It means the world to me. Much Love & Affection…Take care Dearest Kay, My Love & prayers are with you…(*_*)
