Mary Sue Thompson (from her Facebook page)
Annette Cannon, 8/15/16: Mary Sue Thompson, a beautiful, talented young lady, passed the other day. I met her and heard her audition years ago at Vincent B.’s station in Boulder. Her voice was amazing. Although I didn’t know her on a personal level, she was friends with many of my friends, and I wanted to give her this mention and send prayers to the family and friends. RIP Mary Sue.
She auditioned at the 2014 Durango Song Writers here in Broomfield….Great singer song writer. https://youtu.be/FJVcmgBvdJs
