SUSAN EDITH SAGE

Condolences & Memories (11 entries)

• My sincere condolences to the Sage family. I went through high school with Susan and Vida, and we all went to our grad together. Our years were brief on the line of life, but I'll never forget the laughter and fun we all had together. Wonderful memories. I am so sorry to hear Susan has passed.

• Dearest Susan... I will always remember, together with my wife Dina Vargas, (may she rest in peace), the lovely times we shared during the years we lived in Winnipeg and how you opened your arms and home to us, along with your parents Edith and George. You and I go back a long way... both to Hungary... and I have fond memories of the time we visited you and your parents back in the 60's with my dad, part of which we spent at your cottage. You were always such a lovely and generous soul and I am so happy to have been in part of your life. Love Peter - Posted by: Peter Furesz (Distant cousin) on: Oct 27, 2014

• I met Susan when I taught Sunday School to George and Billy. We became close friends as she taught music for young children to MY children. From tobogganing memories to the fellowship times where Susan and I stayed out all night, there is no one to replace her adventurous spirit, her giving nature and her "why not?" attitude. God has called Susan home too soon for me but His timing is perfect. Love you, Susan. Will be seeing you soon. Deepest sympathy to George and Billy, their families and Susan's parents. - Posted by: Erma Bergen-Glowasky (Friend and sister) on: Oct 26, 2014

• Oh Zuzika! My world will not be the same without you in it. I know you rest safe in your Saviour's Arms. You shared such a fairy tale time in my life. A time when I was truly alive and living a full existence. As others have commented, you faced your last ordeal here on this Earth with incredible Faith, grace and dignity. I will remember the laughter. We always could look back and roar about our lives as group home staff. I know your Spirit will be forever close to all those many you so dearly loved. - Posted by: Cheryl Ann Nelson (Friend and Former Colleague) on: Oct 19, 2014

• Mygood friend Susan, such a unique and adventurous 45 yr. friendship we had. So many good memories of our travels, conversations and always laughter, which was always so effortless with positivity, sensitivity, insight, grace, humor and style. If faced with a problem Susan would persevere until she found a solution. Nothing was ever too much for her. Susan's striving for excellence was always reflected in her personal life and professional career. With her sharing and caring way, Susan gave so much of herself to help others. During the course of her battle with cancer, Susan always remained true to herself. Calm, focused, positive yet practical,always held steadfast in faith and encouraged by support from all who knew her. Susan did all this with Incredible Dignity and Courage. Cancer never defined her or took away her essence..Susan always remained Susan. I will miss you very much my friend, but when I see the stars twinkle I will be reminded of your twinkling blue eyes and smile. You are free of your pain and suffering and now you will be a Guardian Angel for many. Condolences to Susan's parents Mr. and Mrs. George and Edith Sagi, her children George (Kathleen), Billy (Lhen) and young grandson Dean. Susan, you will always be remembered by me. With much love..your friend...Vida Balciunas (from Vancouver) - Posted by: Vida Balciunas (Friend) on: Oct 18, 2014

• I have known Susan for most of her life, ever since she was young girl. The memories, adventures and times spent together are too numerous to list. The latest and very fond memories come from "hanging out" in Florida. This came with long chats into the late hours of the night about life, children, gardens and all we both loved and appreciated in life. I knew Susan to be one of kindest people I have ever come across, good to the core with an inner peace and philosophical outlook on life that is hard to match. She bore her trying illness with grace, wisdom and dignity. May she rest in peace. To her grieving family I send my love and most heartfelt sympathies, Elizabeth Stockl - Posted by: Elizabeth Stockl (Family friend) on: Oct 18, 2014

• Such a beautiful photo and tribute. The photo really captures her gentleness and warmth. This is such a painful loss for all those close to her and my heart is especially broken her her dear parents, sons, daughters in law, and little Dean. She loved you all with all of her heart and I know she didn't want to leave any of you. I also know she was at peace knowing she was going home to her loving Creator. So terribly hard to accept this and let her go, buthe I know she is finally free and relieved of her struggle. I love you Auntie Susan and I am grateful for all the ways you were in my life. Until we meet again. Xoxoxoxo. You will all continue to be in my prayers and considered family. Lots of love. - Posted by: Lisa Taylor (surrogate niece and long time family friend) on: Oct 18, 2014
