“I loved being with Susan. She always made my day better with her beautiful laugh and smile.Susan had a love for people and anyone who was with her was going to feel better before they left. She never wanted to talk about herself. She wanted to know how I was doing. I love Susan and I feel my life has been brightened by having her as a friend.”

“I’ll always remember Susan as being a giving person. She gave up her teaching career to move back home to take care of her parents; then cared for two elderly Aunts. She sent her sweet messages at all Holidays to Family and Friends. She didn’t have her violin with her to make music in her last home but she used her artistic skill to draw, paint and make beautiful jewelry. I’ll miss playing card games with her and her sister-in-law even when they started changing the rules. None of us can know the depth of a person’s pain nor how we will deal with it. Rest In Peace Susan, we love You. ?”
— Nancy Moore

“Susan family lived across the street from us, the Shockley’s. Susan and where playmates and children, we being dressed as Roy Rogers and Dale Evans….searching for the bad guys and having shoot outs with our Roy Rogers cap pistols. Such fond memories of Susan parents and brothers. My brother Joe Don was great friends with Susan’s older brother George. Joe took movie pictures of George riding down the road, on his new Harley Davidson Bike. A family that we shared love and life together…so blessed to have been close neighbors and life long friends.”

“I tried to locate Susan after she wasn’t in Perryton anymore. She was a dear friend from childhood as we both attended Full Gospel Church. We had so many good times and laughed once till cherry Dr. Pepper ran out her nose.I thought she was bleeding. We were at church camp in Laverne ,Oklahoma. I’ll have to wait now to say goodbye when we meet again and say hello.”

“From Kaye Reinhard. Tulsa OK Susan and I were great friends in Tulsa from 1986. I visited her in San Angelo TX in summer of 1989. We loved this huge Mexican restaurant, ‘Henry’s’, so we ate there every night!!! We went to San Antonio to Seaworld—so much fun! I lost track of Susan after she moved to Amarillo. I recently got a cell phone and began looking up old friends. I am so heart broken Susan passed away…it’s just as hard to learn this now. We had so many great times and she and I were close friends… kept in touch over the phone for years. My sister died about a yr ago, dead for 2 weeks at her home, I find out recently that two cousins died and my best friend on HS too. I looked up Jene’s 2002 obit tonight. I have so many good memories, ones that make me laugh like “the cherry Dr Pepper running out of your nose!” God bless all of Susan’s loved ones. We can still tell Jesus we love her and hold her near. We can never have too many people as wonderful as Susan Fike! We love you, Susan!”
