Susan Landauer

Sue will be dearly missed. Our hearts are with you in this time of sorrow. God Bless. Our deepest sympathy, Eric & Eileen

I am so sorry to hear about Sue. My thoughts and prayers are with your family. I moved to Chicago from North Carolina in 1984. Sue was my first friend there. She introduced me to Chicago and Winter. She and I worked together and had fun. I introduced her to Kay and the three of us were inseparable. I moved to NYC in 1986 and kept in touch through Kay. Sue will always hold a special place in my heart. Love, Barbara

So very sorry for your loss. We enjoyed meeting Susan at our bible study on Monday evenings. We will be praying for comfort and strength for your your family. God is with you on every step of this journey! Hope you still plan on coming in the Spring. God Bless

Mrs. Landauer, thank you for the light you brought into the world and for giving me Alyssa as a best friend. Love, Claire

I was beyond fortunate to know Susan as Mrs. Landauer and Alyssa’s (and Matthew’s) mom. It was truly the gift of a lifetime to meet the Landauers right before Alyssa and I headed off to college. From day one, I loved Alyssa’s mom. I’ll always remember Mrs. Landauer for her kindness, her warmth, and the way she so graciously embraced me into her family, time and time again. One of my fondest memories was spending spring break in Florida with her, Alyssa, and Mr. Landauer. Every night, we would play games together; and I would (and still do) aspire to be at her level of board game skill and savvy. Her passing is heartbreaking, but she leaves a beautiful legacy in the lives of Alyssa, Matthew, and Keith. I am so grateful for the light she brought into all of our lives. All of our love, Claire and the Roehri family

Sue and I have been friends since 1985 and it is with a heavy heart that I know that she will no longer be with us. We met when we both started our careers in Chicago and were finding our way being true adults for the first time. We shared so many experiences, navigating our professional careers, consulting on matters of the heart and traveling on holidays together to many wonderful places. However one of the best things we did was make new friends and introduce them to each other resulting in the amazing group of friends that we share to this day. Colleen, Sharon, Tammy, Bernadette, Mary Jo, Dewey, Steve and Sarah amongst others were frequently with us while going out to such places as Wrigley Field to watch the Cubs, restaurants, the beach, local festivals and each other’s homes for get togethers. The other best thing we did was both marry men whom we both loved and in turn all four of us became such great friends. Keith and Sue and Charles and I had the most wonderful holidays together. From Sue and Keith being one of our first visitors to South Africa not that long after I married Charles and moved to South Africa to going on a cruise with Sue and Keith and Alyssa and Matt to Alaska, to meeting them in Venice and spending about a week together there and in the Dolomites in northern Italy, to their second visit to see us in South Africa with Sharon and Steve, in addition to the more local travels we had with them, we had such fantastic times and memories that I will cherish. Sue was always such a great organizer of social get togethers. When Charles and I would be coming to the US for a visit she would be on top of what special exhibits were at the museums or what concerts were playing at the Botanical garden or Millenium Park or what neighborhood festival was on the go. Sue was also such a perceptive friend and always concerned for your well being. She was kind and caring and wanted to give advice or help in any way she could to lift burdens from you. It is with such sadness that I did not recognize the troubles she was going through recently. Sue you will always be loved and missed. My only consolation is that you are now at peace and happy in heaven.

Our heart goes out to you Keith, Alyssa, Matt....I remember the fun times I had with Sue, scrapbooking, Vegas, book club, lunches, Ravinia, the list goes on. Always made me laugh and her laugh was contagious. Hugs and prayers to you. Todd & Michele

Please accept our deepest condolences for your family's loss.
