So sad to read about Sue's passing this morning. We didn't know her for very long but had the pleasure of a visit a couple of years ago while she was in WA with family. We met Sue and Barry while on a cruise in the Mediterranean. Santorini will be etched in our memory. RIP Sue and sincere condolences to her family. Xx
