I had the pleasure of working with Susan at the Edison Middle School in Boston. She was a warm, dedicated teacher who was loved by her students and co-workers. She was also an avid sports fan and I greatly enjoyed our chats about the Red Sox!
We are so sorry to hear of Susan , passing. Many fond memories from our youth. RIP, Susan. Mary Sue and Alan Johengen
Susan was an excellent bridge player who had the rare combination of being competitive and a joy at the bridge table. As a participant in our Tuesday duplicate bridge money game she won the initial "Big Nickel Trophy" for winning the most nickels. As a consequence she earned the nickname, "The Nickel Queen". Her controversial McGinnis bridge convention will be employed by some of our more daring bridge players.
Susan will be immensely missed by all who played with her and against her.Susan's spirit and enthusiasm for life and her generosity is a testimonial for all of us to emulate.
Don Kramer on behalf of all the DOOP bridge players.
Susan McGuinness, lover of teaching, lover of picking, lover of music, lover of bridge, lover of gathering with friends with a bottle of wine. Pat and I adore you and we will be forever grateful for knowing you. Rest in peace, see you soon.

Her smile. Her voice, "There"s my Al" she would say to my husband and then take my hand and say "I love you too, but, he can fix things". we would giggle like kids and then when alone, my husband and I would reflect upon how genuinely she loved us both. As I type, the tears are running down my face because I will neither see her smile nor hear her voice again but, we were given a gift in knowing her. She had generosity of heart and soul. She judged not and shared herself freely. She taught generosity; the value of a day given; one day at a time and, that antiques were lessons from the past. She is not gone from my heart but is now a star that will shine brightly in the sky and someday, soon, that star will blink at me and I will know it will be Suesan saying "There's my Al, and I love you too". I will miss her but she will live forever within my heart and I will try to treat the world with the same softness she taught.
Sue and I were friends since childhood. I hadn't seen her since high school but have fond memories of time together at Castle's with the DeSales girls. She will be missed.
I met Susan at Renningers Antique Market where we set up opposite each other for years. She was the sweetest lady you would ever want to know, and she was also very generous and kind. I will miss her very much. I live in Dayton now, and when I think of my years in Florida, I think of many friends I made there. Susan was one of the best of the best. RIP dear friend, I will miss you.
Susie was a dear college friend at Rosary Hill College in Buffalo NY. She was a beam of light in the days when we were art students together. Happily we connected just a few years ago, but I will miss her forever. Laurie Twist
