It is with profound sadness that we bid farewell to our beloved Claudia Sue Quirion, fondly known as Sue, who passed away peacefully on August 24, 2024. Born on February 21, 1943, in Charlotte, Tennessee, Sue was a beacon of light, laughter, and love in the lives of everyone she knew. Her vibrant spirit and enduring strength were rivaled only by her unwavering faith in the Lord, where she was a devoted member of the Rock Springs Free Will Baptist Church. She was a loving mother, grandmother, and great grandmother, a funny friend, and a generous soul who brought joy to those around her with her infectious laughter and compassionate heart.
Sue was a pillar of love and strength, having touched countless lives throughout her career as a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA). Her life was a testament to selflessness and compassion, always putting the needs of others before her own. She instilled in those around her a deep love for family and cherished her grandchildren and great-grandchildren above all else. Sue's passion for cooking was well-known, as was her love for flowers and reading. These simple pleasures brought immense joy to her life and those of her loved ones.
The verse from the book of Proverbs, chapter 31, verse 25, "She is clothed with strength and dignity; she can laugh at the days to come," perfectly encapsulates Sue's life and spirit. Her legacy will continue to be a beacon of love, laughter, and generosity that will be fondly remembered by all who knew her.
We invite you to share your favorite memories of Sue and upload photos to her memorial page. Your stories and pictures will serve as a lasting tribute to a woman who was a blessing to us all. May we remember Sue for her compassionate spirit, her infectious laughter, and her unfaltering love for her family and the Lord.
