Suzanne never liked to have her picture taken with a flash camera. It always made her cry. She really laughs about that now.

As a young woman, her favorite sports were water and snow skiing. She also loved to ride horses.

Suzanne is also a very good piano player and Alan really loves to hear her play.

She was really active in school. She was a baton twirler for her high school band and also a cheerleader.

Suzanne once told her sister-in-law, Marie, that she never used to think of herself as pretty. Her mother always told her to smile and think pretty and that would make her glow so much inside that she would be beautiful outside too.

On one of her dates with Alan, they went to a park where there was an open outdoor stage and began to sing and dance on it all by themselves in the middle of the night!

Suzanne is 5'5" tall and she has blue eyes and blonde hair.

Seven days before they were married, Alan sent Suzanne seven red roses with a note that said:

For every day there is a rose,
For every rose there is time;
And when they've all been counted for,
I'11 come and make you mine.

Isn't that romantic!

While in Europe, Alan and Suzanne celebrated being married for one month by sending a postcard to themselves at their new home in Provo, Utah telling each other how much in love they were and then signing it "Big Al and His Gal."

The first time Suzanne saw Alan perform she sat in the audience with her "mouth wide open."   Afterwards she called her mother to tell her about it.  All she could say was, "I'm so amazed, I can' t even talk!"
