In memory of Sue Smith, President of Cancer Support France
It is with great sadness we would like to inform you of the sudden death of our President and colleague Sue Smith.
She died suddenly whilst on holiday in Sri Lanka on the 6th February with her husband Jon. Our condolences to Jon and their family.
Sue was a great supporter of Cancer Support France (CSF). She trained as an Active Listener volunteer to support clients in her Ouest Aquitaine association, before becoming their President. Our thoughts are with all her association members and clients she worked with.
Sue became the National President in April 2022, while managing to combine this with her role as President of CSF Ouest Aquitaine.
Sue strengthened the CSF National ties with the British Embassy, enabling a very successful President’s Conference to be held there in May 2023. She became very involved in the development of the National Facebook page and the revamped National website.
She undertook her responsibilities with energy and drive, helping to maintain and develop our service.
