who cares?
1st
Great actress and the effects of the million cigarettes she smoked were always in her voice.
DON'T SMOKE AND IF YOU DO, PLEASE QUIT. I DID!
first
im such a loser. first! (i just followed the other comments)
bitches
sad
i don't, and i won't : )
I'm SO glad you do not smoking. Its good so see a 'famous' person who doesn't smoke.
celebs don't understand is that every time they light up to smoke is that some where there is a child doing it and it is showing them the wrong message, and with Katherine she should LOOK AT THIS PICTURE and see wow that could be me in 20 years if i don't stop
yes, really sad…she was quite funny, and talented

WHY DO WHITE PEOPLE AGE LIKE THAT
SO GLAD THAT BLACK DON'T CRACK.

I say smoke up and shorten the sentence!
EWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWEWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWEEEWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW
She will be greatly missed. A beautiful person outside and in!! God Bless you Suzanne.
I love that statement Perez.. "Please DONT smoke"
i see my friends smoking away their lives on a daily basis..and it pains me, they will most likely all end up developing some sort of respiratory failures, and that is really sad to think about.
please pleaseee…dont smoke! you might feel like a "cool teenager" now, but 50 years from now on you will regret you ever touched a boggie.
SHE IS BEAUTIFUL
oh that sucks. she was karen's (will & grace) mom, wasn't she? damn, she was funny as hell too.
So sad.
Reminds me of an era in entertainment when shows were actually funny and CRAP stayed under the table.
Kinda pre-dates you Perez, doesn't it
Yeah kids, don't smoke…
DO CRACK AND METH INSTEAD YOU FUCKIN ASSHOLES!!!!!!!!!!!
Sorry to hear this. Staying healthy is important to staying alive.

Hey. She was 70. My granddad was like 85 and he smoked all his life. How much older do you want to be??
Perez,
Thanks for writting for kids not to smoke. Even though Susan did smoke and died from lung cancer; could I also ask some readers to get radon test for their basements. Radon gases are aften found in basements and while you are exposed to this gas you can develope lung cancer.
This is the second cause of lung cancer and not a ton of people know this. It's a $15 dollar test from Home Depot. Now, this doesn't mean that you are stuck with a faulty house. There are companies that will repair this and then you will never be exposed to this gas again.
I love you perez

WHO THE FUCK IS THAT OLD UGLY WHITE WOMAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SHE'S PROBALY REALLY 39!! OLD PEOPLE ALWAYS LOOK OLDER THEN THEY REALLY ARE
sadd
HOW SAD. I DIDN'T KNOW SHE DIED TIL I SAW PEREZ'S POST. YEAH, THE WHOLE NICOTINE ADDICTION IS AS BAD A BEING ADDICTED TO HEROIN. I DIDN'T KNOW THAT UNTIL I WENT TO SMOKERS ANNONYMOUS. THANK GOD I KICKED IT. MY HUSBAND SAID MY BREATH SMELLED LIKE AN ASH TRAY!
You could not smoke a day your entire life and still end up with lung cancer. My boss was diagnosed last week with lung cancer, she was 36 and never smoked nor was she around smokers. Then my grandfather was a chain smoker and would go through four packs a day and never came down with lung cancer and he lived to be 88. I just don't understand.
Why the fuck are you fucking morons still posting "First!!!!111" like someone in their right mind would cRe: fred – are? Get off the computer and get a life, for christs sake. A person has died and that's the best response you can pull out your ass? Sickening.
Rest in peace, Suzanne.
HOW OLD IS SHE??????? 90 damn
Indeed…don't smoke BUT… more people than you know get lung cancer having never smoked, lived with smokers, worked with asbestos etc. My step father just passed away after battling lung cancer for 3 years - never smoked a day in his life.
Like Wisewebwoman, I long ago heard the devastating effect that cigarettes were having on this talented actresses's voice, and I remember thinking, "She is going to DIE from those cancer sticks someday."
CIGARETTES KILL, FOLKS, AND IF YOU THINK YOU'RE NOT GOING TO BE ONE OF THOSE STATISTICS, YOU'RE A FOOL!
RIP, Suzanne.
She was astonishingly beautiful in The Birds.
THis will be Katherine Heigl and Lindsay Lohan one day…sad

OMG I LOVE HER!!!!
im so sad she died, she was great and SO beautiful in If its Tuesday This Must Be Belgium
i am from kingston massachusetts and my phone number is 1-617-909=0097. i dont give a fuck about people who pass away.
Yeah, lung cancer happens to non-smokers too, but the vast majority of cases are smokers. Besides, cancer isn't the only shitty thing that can happen to smokers. For instance, how about emphysema? Yeah, it's really SEXY when someone has to drag an oxygen tank around with them for the rest of their lives.
Stop fooling yourselves, people. You're smoking yourselves into an early grave…or worse.
smoke weed instead.
i fucking love you perez. come over, i'll roll us a fatty.
Thanks for the nice tribute to Suzanne. I used to watch the Bob Newhart Show when I was a child. Smoking is a horrible horrible habit! My grandma has emphazema, and it really slows down your life. She can't walk up a staircase without weezing.
I have never smoked in my life, and do not intend to!
And WTF is the deal with this "…she was 70 and was going to die in the next 8 years anyway". HOW THE HELL DO YOU KNOW THAT??? Do you have some kind of God complex? I can guarantee you this much: When YOU'RE 70, you're NOT going to be ready to go yet, unless you're totally suffering from some shitty terminal illness…LIKE LUNG CANCER!!!
do you really think we r going listen to people who make fun kids please
What about Sam the butcher from the Brady Bunch? He also passed away. According to Alice, he had the best "meat" balls around.
So very sad. She was one of my favs and that show was awesome. They don't make 'em like that anymore. Thanks for pointing out that people should not smoke………..ever………….not even one.
Except Britney, she can smoke and smoke and smoke some more but hopefully it will catch up to her well before she's 70.
In an article I read in the Globe and Mail today, they quoted her as saying she's had that voice since she was four years old. She'd answer the phone and people would think she was her father.
first pooh nanny! i am smokin right now . it feels sooooo good .

Im so sad to hear that she is gone. I always had a soft spot for her since I grew up with the Bob Newhart show….
ummm… she had that voice since age 4, it wasn't the sticks.
i gotta say, if perez says its uncool to smoke..obviously it isn't
thanks perez
Hey, Perez buddy big-guy the-MAN!!! Put up a good picture of her when she was young and absolutely beautiful, how bout?!!!
you don't have to smoke to get lung cancer…Dana Reeves ring a bell…cancer is cancer
Every since I was a child, I always enjoyed her brilliant, sarcastic sense of humor on the "Bob Newhart Show" . She definitely paved the way for tv icons like Roseanne, Patricia Heaton, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, and others. R.I.P. You will be missed!
I will miss her. One classy broad. I believe that she would like that. As for the smoking we all have our vices (food, drink, drugs, GOSSIP). Noone lives forever. Dana Reeve died from lung cancer and she never smoked a day in her life. Suzanne led a full and happy life and found love again in her later years with Tom Poston. I hope that I am as lucky and well loved as she. I do not want to be 101 and living in a nursing home. I want quality of life.
she was a lot more than a smoker perez you fuckin' tard. don't reduce her life and legacy to a smug anti-smoking advert. google her and see what she actually accomplished in her life. this time you really piss me off.
I applaud you Perez. Smoking is a silly habit, and it's nice to see that you promote healthy behavior.
IT IS NOT ALWAYS CAUSED BY SMOKING!!!
I KNEW SOMEONE WHO NEVER SMOKED ONCE IN HER LIFE, NEVER LIVED OR HUNG AROUND ANYONE WHO SMOKED EITHER, AND SHE STILL DIED. AND YES MY GREAT GRANDFATHER WAS A CHAINSMOKING, TOBACCO-CHEWING DRUNKARD AND HE IS STILL 102, PERFECTLY FINE, NO HEALTH PROBLEMS WHATSOEVER. LIFE IS FUCKED UP!!!
Re: natasha – EXACTLY RIGHT! Dana Reeves is perfect proof that you don't have to smoke even once in your life to get the cancer. Sometimes it just happens! :[ Poor woman. She was such a dear, as was Chris.
Re: WRINKLES WRIKLES WRINKLES – What a load of bullshit! ALL people age differently regardless of race, color or skin tone. I have worked with a beautiful light skinned black woman for 30 years. I will admit for the the first 20 she looked damn good, but the last few years WOW! her face looks like a piece of plastic that someone used a blowtorch on! Saggy, baggy, wrinkled and lined. If your face is full (read fat) yes you can get a few more good years out but if your face is lean, look out you'll need a bellman to deal with all those bags!
I would like to make a positive comment about this wonderful woman, she was so great on Bob new Heart, when I was a little girl My Dad and I use to stay up and watch this show , My Dad and I did not have much in common so this show brought us together, This lady was funny and had the perfect dry sense of humor. I pray that she was a Believer in Christ so that one day i will get to see her again and she can maybe once again make me Laugh!
I loved her and she was a great actress.. she was beautiful inside and out.. she will be missed but i'm glad she is not pain any more.
and who said who cares.. karma is dangerous.. you have screwed yourself.. watch it
SHE WAS A GREAT ACTRESS AND SUCH A PRETTY LADY.
I had the pleasure of running into her at a restaurant in LA about 10 years ago. I heard her voice and turned to see her standing right behind me. i was a huge fan of the Bob Newhart show, and it was a thrill beyond belief. She was very gracious, friendly, and stunningly beautiful, even with minimal makeup on. And her eyes were beyond gorgeous in person…
She will be missed.
