Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better! Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

I do remember she loved the King's Nine lessons and carols nearly as much as you do.

Here is a short compilation of photos of Sue.
She is dearly missed and has left a hole in the lives of many people across the globe.
The music used is the traditional Hymn 'Crimond' using text from Psalm 23. When Sue was ill she really fixated on this hymn as she has fell in love with the descant parts (probably because she used to sing them). I also believe she also may have seen her beloved King's College Choir perform this.
The second piece is a Bavarian choir performance by the Glockenbachchor, Munich. Sue joined this choir from a very early point and watched (along with helped) it grow to the 60+ members it is today. This piece was performed and recorded at her funeral service.
The two ladies featured in the photos are Annemarie Moser-Pröll, a former female ski champion (and hero to Sue) that she had a ski day with. The second lady is her best friend (and another hero to Sue!) Martina Müller.

Was thinking that we should have meet up in the Ski Amadé next season so that we can all get together to celebrate Sue's memory where she was happiest? Maybe that idea is already in progress?



We are definitely doing this next season.
Scarpa and me just had a few drinks at her beloved Rosner this afternoon with Queenie and flangesax and will post details on here and Farcebook, (as you reminded me robbo!)

The funeral was incredibly moving, and the reading from flangesax junior was a moment I will never forget, Sue would have been so proud.

Thank you for sharing. I never met her, but we exchanged banter about the Fantasy Ski Racer league and I so enjoyed reading her posts here about all sorts of things. It's made me appreciate SnowHeads even more, as there is a whole community of people here whom I have never met, but whose company I enjoy on a regular basis.

For those of you close to Sue, you have done her proud.

Been on holiday for a couple of weeks and saddened to see the title of this thread on Snowheads. @flangesax, great tribute. It's usually lovely to put a face to a name, sad that it happened under these circumstances.

Indeed, two of my favourite composers, Handel and J.S Bach, were inspired by their faith to create much of their brilliant work.

When biologist Lewis Thomas was asked what message he would choose to send into outer space in the Voyager spacecraft, he said: “I would send the complete works of Johann Sebastian Bach … but that would be boasting.” Madeye-Smiley

Oh no I've only just seen this, what sad news, Sue gave me so much help and advice on many trips to Austria particularly driving there, my regret is that we never did actually manage to meet there, may she rest in peace, lovely lady X

Sue's friend Martina is bringing Sue's ashes to the UK. There will be an informal scattering at Cambridge crematorium at 3pm on 30th September. There is no service but if anyone would like to come along please pm me. We will go to the pub and raise a glass afterwards

Just logged on after a good few months. So sad to hear this. Got so much advice from Sue, especially over the few seasons when we booked to go over Christmas/new year and giving advice on when the snow would arrive or not as this year was the case.

RIP Sue

Belated condolences to Sue's family and friends. She clearly lived life to the full and that is to be celebrated. If there's one thing we should take from this it's to remember to value (ie. visit!) those we have left. Big virtual hugs to all her snowHeads friends. You've done her proud xxx

I really must pass on my very late condolences to Sue's family and friends. I am not skiing this season at all and only came on here for a quick browse for the first time since February.

I did not know her but am very sad to hear of her passing. I had a few 'conversations' on this forum, mainly about travelling, but she always seemed really helpful and generous. This forum will certainly be worse off and not be the same without her.
