De La Pointe, Suzanne passed away 2/13/17 from complications due to a seizure-related disorder. Survived by her sisters, Lynne and Sharon, and many family and friends. A graduate of the University of North Dakota and member of Gamma Phi Beta Sorority, Suzanne worked as a multimedia instructional designer for The Education Company of Control Data before becoming an independent training consultant for over 30 years. Considered by her peers to be among the "the best dialogue writers in the business," she was a multi-award-winning training and communications professional working on many diverse topics. She will be most remembered for her outgoing personality, infectious laugh, slightly skewed sense of humor, generous friendship, tenacity in the face of adversity, love of family, and the positive impact she had on the lives of those she touched. She will be tremendously missed. Service 10 AM Fri., March 3, 10 AM at St. Olaf Catholic Church, 215 8th Ave. S. Minneapolis with visitation a half hour before the service. Memorials can be sent to the American Brain Foundation (americanbrainfoundation.org) or Gamma Phi Beta (undalumni.org).
