On another visit with Susie, she invited me to a San Francisco Giants night game.  She was quite a fan, and a season ticket holder.  She also had purchased a condo not far from the Giant's stadium, so as to avoid having to return to Pebble Beach after the games.  It was a memorable evening.  Buster Posey was a young and rising star, and the Giants fielded a competetive NL team.  The view of San Francsico bay from those upper deck third base side seats was one I will never forget.  A wonderful example of Susie's generosity for which I am grateful.

Susie was raised in the Catholic church, and during much of her life she had a special calling to minister to the nuns at the Carmelite Monastery in Carmel, where she also worshipped.  I was visiting one weekend, and was eager to attend mass with Susie, though I am not a Catholic.  I knew the Catholic church's rules on taking Holy Communion, but I really wanted to partake of the Lord's Supper and I figured that no one knew me so I could do so.  Susie was in front of me as I started to leave the pew to go forward, and she whispered that I could not take Communion as I was not Catholic.  I responded that no one knew me, so I could.  She then said that all of the nuns knew that I was visiting and not a Catholic so please don't.  I smiled and, of course, honored that!  What a great experience it was to worship with Susie there.  The doors to the chapel open to an inspiring view of the Pacific Ocean, a view that I have long remembered!

My condolences in particular to all of the Flannery-Rowe families, who are part of Susie's mother's, Tish, family tree.  I am one of her many second cousins who was blessed by her love and caring heart.  Family was very important to Susie, especially after losing Mike, and we are the better for it, as she brought light and joy to us all.  Her deep faith guided her steps and she will be greatly missed!
