Susan Kittek Obituary

I recently learned that Susan Kittek has passed away. I was an avid reader of her column in the Morning Call newspaper for many years and emailed her with good wishes upon her retirement. I learned a lot of good gardening tips and information from her column, and she truly was a master gardener. I am very sorry for the loss to her family and friends. May she rest in peace.

I was so sorry to read about Susan. I never had the pleasure of meeting her, but I greatly enjoyed reading her gardening column. Sending warm thoughts to her family.

I am so sorry to hear about the passing of Susan. I looked forward to reading her column and learned many gardening tips I needed as a novice. May her soul eternally rest in our heavens garden.

As a gardener myself, I often learned something new from her MC columns. But I also marveled that she was able to come up with a topic every week. Many of us were privileged to have known Sue sometime during our lives. What a blessing she was.

Sending prayers and condolences.

Sorry for your loss, Fran.. double hugs for you.

I will miss Susan's columns. They were helpful and pleasant to read. God Bless.

Franny, I’m thinking good thoughts for you and for Sue’s spirit. I will always remember warmly my garden club days with Sue. And as I said before, I’m here if you need anything.

Hugs,

Barb

Fran, as avid readers of Sue’s column (and admirers of your photos to accompany her work, and during your long career shooting for area newspapers), we extend our sincere condolences. Take care. Paul Wirth and Linda Lapos.

Sorry to hear of Sue’s passing. I enjoyed her column for so many years. She will be forever surrounded by beautiful flowers.

What a wonderful garden columnist and writer! Susan’s columns in the Allentown MORNING CALL were something I looked forward to reading, and I even received her advice a couple of times to my garden problems.
I loved her reflections about finding time to plant the sale plants she’d found and what next needed to be done. AND Sue’s reflections about the wildlife on your property were heartwarming. God bless her time with us.

Fran,
My deepest sympathy on Sue's passing. I read her garden column for many years, and in doing so, maintained a connection with you, a former colleague at The Express. I'm sure you will cherish the many memories of your life together. Thinking of Emma, too.

My condolences to Sue’s family on her passing. I enjoyed her column, both the advice and the personal stories. I never met her but considered her a friend. Praying for the family.

To Fran,
So sorry to read that you've lost Susan, your angel. May you feel satisfaction in the future when you recall all of the good memories of your times together. She must have been top drawer, but then you were too.
Best wishes,
Tom Schroeder

We are saddened to hear about Sue’s passing. She was a guest speaker at several of our annual garden tours.

I always enjoyed Sue's column and even had a question answered. She seemed so happy to be with her gardens and her cat and her Fran. My condolences to the family.

Fran,
Hope you are well. I used to read Sue's column every week. Stay strong and come back soon.

I never had the pleasure of knowing in her in person, but I really enjoyed her column in the M.Call. I wrote to her several times and her prompt replies were thorough and appreciated. RIP Susan

May the love of friends and family carry you through your grief.

My deepest sympathy. I always enjoyed reading her informative columns in the Morning Call. Susan will be missed.

So sorry, Fran.

I am so sorry to hear of Susan‘s passing. I very much enjoyed her knowledgeable articles in the Morning Call. I learned a great deal from her. She will be missed.

Dear Kittek Family,
I am very sorry to see that I lost another dear classmate, Sue Gima. We met in the seventh grade at Wilson High School and we’re in just about every class together. Sue was very bright but quiet. I valued her friendship and admired her work ethic. Believe it or not I read many of her articles but did not realize until now that Susan Kittek was indeed Sue Gima. Please accept my sincere condolences on your loss.

I'm so sorry for your loss Fran. Sue was a talented writer and gifted gardener. Sending love and light.

Fran, Deepest sympathy on your loss. You are in our thoughts and prayers. Pete & Trish
