Susan went to college with my  husband. But one day sitting in their living room we realized we too had something in common. We both lived in Germany around the same time.  She was in a town call Gingen and I was nearby in Brenz.  We didn't know each other at that time. When a friend from Germany was visiting, she had a book on her shelf with his photo in it.  It's a small world.  Remembering Susan.
Thinking of Scott and the girls on this day.  I remember once sitting in their living room in Lyndhurst and looking at some of her remembrances from Germany and finding a picture of one of our German friends in a book.  We introduced them and they became friends. Connections.
Today would have been our 46th anniversary.  I am so thankful for having been with Susan all of those years.  Life moves on, but I'll never forget her!!!

Think of Susan often and the positive impact she had my dad by being his good friend, and in turn the positive impact she had on our family. 
Sue, It hardly seems that 2-1/2+ years have passed since we were all together. The girls have grown to be such loving, enjoyable  young women & mothers. Scott has done an amazing  job in preserving yours, his and the family's lives. So much love continues to resonate and flourish within the whole Jewett Family and ours. God Bless, Sue, till we meet again in God's Loving arms.  💓Aunt Rita & Uncle Ken Englebry.
Susan was a very sweet, special person.  Always had a smile on her face and loved her family very much.  I use to love to see her light up when each of the grandchildren were born and the special stories she had about each one.  She was a wonderful neighbor.  I do miss her and tear up when I think about her.  I feel very blessed to have known Susan.

Susan and I went to John Carroll.  At that time the University didn’t provide much in the way of facilities for the commuters. Because of that I often let Susan sit at my desk in my dorm room to do her work. It was a lot easier than trying to balance everything on her knees.

She was a good friend and I still find myself surprised she’s gone.

Last week I was in Florida.  I took the opportunity to visit several special vacation locations that we enjoyed.  There is a small restaurant that overlooks Tampa Bay that Susan really liked.  I ate lunch there and reminisced about all the great times that we had.  I was so blessed to have shared so many years with Susan.  I certainly wish there had been many more, but I treasure every moment that we shared together.

I sure miss you honey.

Susan's memorial service was one year ago today. It seems like just yesterday, but it also feels like forever ago.
Kristina, Katie and I were very pleased that so many people attended and shared their condolences and fond memories. We were also supported by friends and family who couldn't come to the service but were there in spirit.
There were many tears, some laughter with good memories and lots of love.
In honor of Susan, please be sure to tell a family member or friend that you love them.

Love,
Scott
Scott Jewett
1978, Case Western Reserve Campus
Susan was a freshman at Notre Dame college in South Euclid. Her roommate was Roberta.
Case was holding an open campus party shortly after classes started. Roberta wanted to go and insisted that Susan accompany her. They went, I went, and fate intervened. Susan and I met and I truly believe it was love at first sight. Roberta got upset that she dragged Susan to the event and then it was Susan who met the guy!
We dated continuously from that time until we were married in 1978. We frequently reflected on how Roberta's insistence that Susan should go led to our meeting and lifetime together.
Susan was the sweet addition to Scott's life many years ago, though I was a very young Aunt who knew Sue so little but grew to ♥️ her well as the years progressed. She was so intelligent, impressive, eloquent, a great Mother & sister-in-law, who will be sadly missed. We will look after your hubby and family , Susan, and keep you in our hearts always. Sincerely, (Aunt) Rita & (Uncle)Ken Englebry

I got to know Susan by chance: one of her daughters searched the internet for information about huskies, she came to my website and because I am from Salzburg, Susan contacted me. At some point during her numerous trips to Salzburg, I met Susan. We met again and again on each of her subsequent trips. We were together at Königssee, in Berchtesgaden, at an alpine hut with me in the mountains and at various beautiful places in the city of Salzburg.
Susan knew Salzburg better than I was a local.

Susan, I will always carry you in my heart and never forget you. R.I.P.
The Germans say, "man trifft sich immer zwei mal im Leben" and im so glad that we did, Susan. I raise my Helles to you and say, "Prost" in your honor, till one day when we'll drink and laugh again in the afterlife.
My greatest condolences to you, Susan's family, on the loss of such an amazing person.
I met Susan 45 years ago at John Carroll University when I was a junior and she was a sophomore and we were friends ever since. Four years later I took my wife to be Christie to Susan and Scott’s wedding. The friendship that developed lasted for 41 years. We miss Susan dearly.
The Hofbrauhaus CLEVELAND family is saddened by the passing of a very special HB patron and beloved friend. Our place will not be the same without her smile, “Prost” and hug. Until we meet again Susan.....we will take care of Scott for you!
Susan was a very kind and sweet lady. Susan raised an amazing daughter who would go on to marry my brother. For that I am grateful. She was always willing to give the shirt off of her back to make you feel comfortable and taken care of. I've always wanted to one day learn the language she taught so many others in her teaching career. You can tell from other students' comments that she was one of those teachers who had such a profound impact to where they'll never forget her influence and knowledge. May her memories live on.

Death is nothing at all
to the next room.I am I and you are you. Whatever we were to each other, that we still are.Call me by my old familiar name. Speak to me in the easy way which you always used. Put no difference into your tone.Wear no forced air of solemnity or sorrow. Laugh as we always laughed at the little jokes we enjoyed together. Play, smile, think of me, pray for me.Let my name be ever the household word that it always was. Let it be spoken without affect, without the trace of a shadow on it.Life means all that it ever meant. It is the same that it ever was. There is absolute unbroken continuity. What is death but a negligible accident?Why shouldI be out of mind because I am out of sight?I am waiting for you, for an interval, somewhere very near, just around the corner. All is well.

I'm so sorry to hear this news from a CHHS friend. Frau Jewett was so influential to me, I went to study in Austria three times in high school, and was in touch with my host family from Grödig for years after that. After high school I traveled to Germany or Austria every summer and ended up living there for three years, studying music and playing the piano throughout the region. Without her that never would have happened. She would regularly chat with my mother at the library, and even came to my performances. What a terrific soul. Thank you Frau Jewett we remember you
Frau Jewett and I had a really close relationship outside of her being my German teacher for 4 years at Cleveland Heights High School. She was invited to my wedding and baby shower. She was a beautiful person who was filled with smiles and joy. She will truly be missed. I’m heart broken.
