Special thanks to Patti Racine, The Middletown Times Herald Record, for furnishing me with the correct dates
and page numbers of the edition of The Middletown Times Herald Record so that I would be able to find the obituary
using the microfilm at The Middletown THRALL Library, where I am currently a librarian. Without the use of the microfilm the information would not be able to included herein.
NOTE: no relation to B.E.F. Stienstra.
My husband Greg knew of Susan before I knew her. She worked for Harvey Smith at H.U.D., I had to pick up a check for Greg one day as he did some electrical work for them, and I met her. Within a short period of time
she started working at the college where I met her again.
The last time I saw Sue, I was in the lower "J" building
at Sullivan County Community College and I had just returned from my classes for my bachelors
degree at New Paltz, and we had a chat. It was the most we ever spoke to each other. She had told me that her mother had died at a very young age from the same cancer from which Sue was suffering. She said that she was being so mindful of this and was doing everything preventative and here she was, she still was living the nightmare. For some unknown reason, at the end of our conversation, we hugged. When she went one direction and I went the other, for some reason I was compelled to turn and look back at her, and she did in turn. I had goosebumps up my arms as I just had the feeling that I would never see her again alive. I don't know why she turned and looked at me, but she had a look on her face as if she knew that it would be the last time that she would see me...
... and this was so.
I was told by a dear friend of hers and collegue that she waited for her twin daughters to come to the hospital from a distance, and they did and then she closed her eyes for the last time. I was so happy to hear that she was able to see them.
I thought of us going to the funeral but said to my husband Greg, I would much rather remember that one
moment.
I have been wanting to include her obituary at F.A.G. but was unable to find it as I rummaged through the microfilm.
Finally, I called Ms. Racine who found it as I was telling her, and I am very grateful to her as I had put many hours looking for it and she found it in "Record" (pardon the pun) time!
