Eulogy for Dr. Sue L. Dear
given by Grover C. Dear, Jr.
3, 2012

Nothing Sue Dear ever did could be ordinary\\\..everything she did had to be extraordinary. So how can I and Doug and Deanna possibly describe our Mother ?
\ Ultimate grace & manners,
\ Absolute determination to achieve,
\ Dignified excitement perhaps, and always
\ Perfection on every level\\\
These phrases easily come to my mind\\\.. and all of you here today have your own interpretation of how Mother touched your lives in her own special Dear way.

Sue Land Dear\\\\. In retrospect, Mothers maiden name, Land, was very, very symbolic. She grew up in the red clay hills of Webster , Mississippi during the depths of the Great Depression. I always loved taking trips with Mother & Daddy in the car\\\her Cadillac\\\. and as we drove, she would talk for hours about her Land family history. Mother told me that\\\ ack then, if you didn have land to grow things on, you didn eat\.. you didn survive! As soon as she could walk, she was toddling out in the garden, or the fields, or in the kitchen with her Mother, or her Aunt Sis, or her Grandmother "Maw Land" learning continued...
