Remembrances
Sue was a Competitor. We competed against each other in Competition Ballroom and Latin dances. We both competed locally, state wide, and internationally. We pushed each other to try harder. Sometimes, she would win, and sometimes I would beat her. And off the ballroom floor, we were supportive of one another.
I will miss competing against her. Rest in peace, Sue.

This picture was taken at one of Sara’s mother’s Derby Parties. I think it must have been our second one, because Sue’s horse won. That would make it May 5, 2018. She must have polished off her mint julep by then. — Palma Lower
