Susann Sills was no shrinking violet, says her friend Chris Solimine. They had met while both earned an MBA at the University of Miami. "Susann was ... smart, witty, sarcastic, but not in a mean way... just enough to dig at you," he said. "Incredibly driven, a loyal friend."
And she was an accomplished businesswoman. Together with her husband, Dr. Eric "Scott" Sills, a renowned fertility specialist, they had started their own IVF practice in April 2015. "She started the business ... she built it," Solimine said, adding, "Susann pretty much ran everything with the exception of actually doing the procedures."
So, it came as a shock when he read the news that Susann Sills had suddenly died on Nov. 13, 2016, from an apparent accidental fall. "It didn't seem plausible to me that she just fell down the stairs with a migraine headache," Solimine said. But that was the story Dr. Sills had told the 911 operator that morning when he called and reported finding his wife face down on the staircase. Solimine says he wondered if there was more to the story.
