Sue had a generous heart and a kind soul. She had an incredible talent for making those around her feel special and included. Sue was a deeply empathetic soul, always willing to listen and offer comfort and understanding. Her guidance and support were often sought after by her many friends, family, and coworkers.

She is survived by her sons, Edward III of Colonie, and Brian and his wife Jennifer of Niskayuna. Susan is also survived by her granddaughter, Sofia of Colonie; her sister, Janice of Lake George, NY; her brother, Paul MacFarland of Colonie, NY; and seven nieces and nephews. She was predeceased by her brother, Bruce.
