The night before Suzanne went Home.... / Nancy ("Mommy")
The night before Suzanne left this world for her Heavenly Home a song went through my mind. I woke up a few times in the early morning hours of Juni 16 2005 with these lyrics on my heart:
"Show me Your glory Send down Your presence I want to see Your face Show me Your glory Majesty shines about You I can't go on without You Lord"
It's been 52 months and I am just now allowing myself to go back to that night and the song the Lord gave me before He took Suzanne Home. Of course I didn't know God was preparing me for what was to come that day. Now finally looking back I consider those lyrics. My precious daughter sees the Lord's face sees His glory and is in His presence!
(The song is by Third Day "Show Me Your Glory".)
Suzanne Jenny Trinity and me at a Third Day concert.
Suzanne was born with a lot of fuzzy, black hair. She made her first appearance around 12:30 PM. Back then you didn't know if you were having a boy or a girl. I was sure that I was having a boy. So sure that when the nurse said, "You have your little Suzanne!"...I asked her if she was sure it was a girl. It only took me a few seconds to recover from the surprise and thrill at the fact that I had a little girl! Later that evening, in the hospital room, Suzanne and I watched the John Denver Christmas special on TV.
Eventually, all of the black fuzz was gone and she was bald except for little blonde hairs that were just beginning to grow. She was a very good baby. Always smiling, and friendly with everyone. As a toddler, she entertained herself with dolls and other fun toys. I would often hear her talking in her little-baby voice. She'd be chattering away as she played in her room. One day, she was quiet...too quiet, so I went to check on her. She had taken all the toys out of her toybox, climbed in and fell asleep.
Suzanne kept her blonde hair (most of the time ) and remained smiling and friendly as a young woman. I'm so thankful to have had a daughter that was my best friend too.
all though I miss her, shes in a better place and shows up all the time as a white butterfly...my tears are because i love her to the death of it and the truth is i only saw her a couple of times in the holiday season...the fun we had though and the talks..man the talks.
wat do you do wen you know someones there for you but you cant see them?
Marshmallow World / Nancy (Mom) A Christmas song is going through my mind today, "Marshmallow World", as sung by Bing Crosby. It was one of those old time Christmas songs that Suzanne just loved. She'd sing along in her cheerful, silly way.
"It's a marshmallow world in the winter When the snow comes to cover the ground It's the time for play, it's a whipped cream day I wait for it the whole year round.
Those are marshmallow clouds being friendly In the arms of the evergreen trees And the sun is red like a pumpkin head It's shining so your nose wont freeze.
The world is your snowball, see how it grows Thats how it goes whenever it snows The world is your snowball just for a song Get out and roll it along
It's a yum-yummy world made for sweethearts Take a walk with your favorite girl It's a sugar date, what if spring is late In winter it's a marshmallow world."

Suzanne's Birthday / Nancy Stratmann (Mother)
December 10, 1975, 12:32 pm, Van Nuys, California. The nurse told me, "You have your little Suzanne". I was shocked, because I was convinced I was going to have a boy. I asked the nurse if she was sure. Duh! I held her in my arms and knew that she was the most precious gift I could ever get for Christmas.
God gave me Suzanne for 29 years. What a pleasure it was to be her mother. When she was a baby, her bright smile and cute face attracted people to her. As a little girl she was quiet, but not too shy. As an adult she was loving, kind, and giving.
When I get down and miss her more than usual, I can just imagine her smiling and telling me not to be upset. She told me often, "You worry too much, Mom".
We all have our faults and Suzanne was no exception. Why think of the negative now? What good could it do? She is alive in spirit, in Heaven with the Lord. She has no more sorrow, pain, or faults. He has made her beautiful...more beautiful than she ever was on earth. Now, that, is *beautiful*!
I thank God for another precious gift from Suzanne and Rick...my granddaughter, Trinity. (I love you, Trin!)
(I did have a boy, in 1979. My son, Brian. I thank the Lord for him too!!)
Suzanne - always in my heart, until we see each other again.

Suzanne's Presence During Meditation After Trauma ("My Lead Angel") / Bob Semk (Uncle)
To Suzanne's Loved Ones,
I meditate on a daily basis and always sense Suz's spirit.
After a recent traumatic, near death experience, I went on with strong and defined meditation to my angels. Suz was with me but stronger and more pronounced. I spent quite some time picturing her from a baby to adulthood. Fond memories, and well as difficult times, with her were evident in my mind and spirit.
I felt a feeling of protection and honest love when meditating on Suz's angelic guidance. She is definitely the EMT of the angel crowd!
(written after spending spiritual time with my neice)
"It's one foot then the other as I step out onto the road. How much weight? Then it's how long? and how far? and how many times before it's too late?
Calling your angels, Suz, walk me through this one, don't leave me alone.
Call all angels, I'm crying I'm hurting and I'm not sure why"
I will always feel Suzanne's spirit with me after that incident. After all, she's the lead angel in the spiritual troop watching out for me!
You are missed so much Sue! I think of you so often and will always remember our times together..Drinking our Arbor Mist, well here is to you my friend! Cheers this one is for you!
