Susan was a woman of simple joys and unmistakable passions.

An avid online shopper, she especially enjoyed QVC and HSN, finding excitement in discovering new items and special finds that brightened her days.

Her heart belonged to her dogs, especially her beloved Cooper. Her connection to them was steady and deeply felt. She also had a talent for creating wonderful meals, especially her famously delicious salads, crafted with care and her unmistakable touch.
Exceptionally articulate with numbers, she was a dedicated bookkeeper who took pride in balancing every account down to the last penny. Her precision and attention to detail were admired by everyone who worked with her.
She will be deeply missed and remembered with love.
