Dear Frank, Paul, Family & Friends of Suzanne,  I am saddened for your loss.  I knew Suzanne in college at West Chester.  She had a beautiful and sweet spirit.  Our relationship since college consisted of notes written on yearly Christmas cards.  She wrote fondly of you both, and was proud of your accomplishments Paul!  What a reunion in heaven awaits!  Until then, may God comfort and bless you.  Terri Rice

My deepest condolences to the Tunis family for this tremendous loss. May the words found at Isaiah 26:19 bring you comfort in knowing that you will one day see Suzanne again. 
 
 
Isaiah 26:19 “Your dead will live. My corpses will rise up. Awake and shout joyfully, You residents in the dust! For your dew is as the dew of the morning, And the earth will let those powerless in death come to life”

Frankie:
 
I am so sorry for your loss.  I worked with Suzanne at LGH, but you and I go way back to the days at LGh when you were in Respiratory and hung around with Jim Aikens.
 
I wish for you and your family love and many memories to give you peace.
Suzanne fought the battle that is for sure.
