Aunt Soupy was the best. A loving, caring wife, mother, grandma, great grandma, sister, aunt and friend to all! One of my best of many memories of her is when every week (I think it was Tuesday nights) she would come to visit my mother-in-law. She was an amazing lady!

Rest in peace Mrs. Sue as we affectionately called her at P.S.44. My heartfelt condolences to your family and friends. You will be remembered always.
Diamondnique says
It was a pleasure to know her during my adolescent years as Ms. Sue then later as I became a part of her extended family and knew her as “Soupy”. I grieve with you all…no matter if she had lived 100 more years it wouldn’t be long enough for all of us that love her. She was as real as they come…no filter & that’s the way I hope to be in my late years. A true heart of Gold…we all know that heaven just gained a natural comedian. She will truly be missed. My thoughts & prayers are with you all (Especially my twin Lulu).
Ronald Harris says
Condolences to the entire extended family for the loss of “”MISS PISCOPO”” —— as I remembered her. Always fair, stern, but funny at the same time, as she assisted the kids crossing the cross walk behind P.S 44 at the end of the school day. And it seemed like she ran the court yard as the kids played after lunch. The bigger kids weren’t allowed to cross that Imaginary line , onto the play area of the younger ones. SHE MADE SURE OF THAT.,,,,but always with love. It was like she was the Principal of P.S 4 without the title. She will be sadly missed. Rest in Peace. ******Ronald Harris, for my brothers NAT, KEVIN, ROSCOE & sister TERRY.******
