leslie “Sue” Harrell, 60, passed in peace on April 27, 2019 in Jacksonville, Florida, beloved wife of the late Ray Harrell, loving mother to Lorna Sue Harrell & husband Richie and adoring grandmother to Jazmine, David, Izayah and Joel.

Lorna Sue relates a memory of her mother’s amazing heart. Sue told her daughter she will get a cat of all different colors for her birthday. Lorna asked “like the rainbow?” and Sue said ‘yes’ with her beautiful smile. The cat was then named Rainbow and was loved for 14 years. Lorna will always remember her laugh and that smile.
Sue loved her family and friends and will be missed by everyone. She had a good life with some struggles, but always showed love for those around her.
Sue will be remembered with a memorial service in St Louis at a later date for family and friends.
