Susan was one of those people that lit up a room when she entered with her incredible energy and enthusiasm. She will always be remembered for her kindness, her selflessness, her strong positive outlook and her faith.

Susan fought very hard for the past 9 months to beat cancer, remaining upbeat and positive throughout her journey. She passed on December 29th, 2024 surrounded by family and friends during her last hours.

She was loved by so many people, especially her husband, Augie, who she was married to for 40 years. To know Susan was to love Susan. She was a great daughter, sister, aunt, great-aunt and friend – to all she knew. She loved comedy, of course, that is no surprise. Her favorites were Lucille Ball and Red Skelton. And to quote Red Skelton’s good night song... “The time has come to say goodnight. I hope I’ve made a friend. And so we’ll say, may God Bless, until we meet again’.

Susan, you made many friends, who will miss you dearly, until we meet again.
