Sue Fenstermaker was a radiant point of light in an ever-dimming world. There’s not a soul who met her who didn’t love her, nor a person she met that she didn’t love. A lifelong creative, a poet, a lover of art, music and nature, my grandmother was a champion of not only her own kids and grandkids, but of every one of her many “adopted” kids and grandkids, and of course her beloved friends. Sue lived a long, beautiful life, full of more love, fun, and bullshittery than I thought possible. Her final wishes asked that we sit around her, telling stories of this beautiful life, and with the help of some truly dear friends near and far (and a partner in crime who’d get to her in any life, in any place) we were able to make those wishes a reality, as comforting for us as I hope it was for her. I cannot begin to put into words how thankful I am to have gotten 22 wonderful years of knowing her. I am forever changed for the better, and we could all serve ourselves by living a little bit like her. I love you, Nonnie, see ya someday<3
