Come Home Suzy
The town of Ballston Spa held a candlelight vigil for Suzanne. During the ceremony, Ben LaMothe, a long time friend of Suzanne's read an original poem that he wrote for the occasion. The family would like to share it with you here.
Come Home, Suzy
Over the years we have formed a sacred bond
Molded and conditioned it, our spirits woven tightly together by
the strength of our friendship
The long talks, the heavenly strolls through the park
Memories which now comfort me, when I am alone in the dark
The sweet sound of your voice, your long golden hair
The gift of your serenity, the peace you are so willing to share
I often wonder, and pace through life frustrated
Are you still out there? Or has your warmth long since faded
Oh what bliss, spending cherished moments with you
Where am I without you, what am I supposed to do?
But wait
Impatiently I sit, thinking today will be the day
That you come back home to me, to your family and to your friends
But even if not today, know this: our hope, our undying love for
You will never end
Oh Suzy, without you my life is just not the same
Your sunshine, your love, your spirit that refuses to be tamed
Someday we will re-unite
In this life, or in Heaven, the wrongs will be made right
Until then, I'll continue to wait
To pray and to hope, knowing always that our friendship
Has been sealed by fate
And when that day come, you will find me with out-stretched arms
Still loving, still dazed by your own unique charm
Amplified by the candles which we now burn
Are my prayers, my wishes for your safe return
