Susan was employed at Candlewood Mobil Home Park as an office manager. When her children were younger, she played an active part in all of their extra curricular activities. She enjoyed performing in St. Gregory's annual "variety show". Each spring, she enjoyed planting countless flowers that she would tend to throughout the summer months. She was very talented in knitting and crochet work. Susan was an avid dog lover, and enjoyed spending time with her six standard poodles. As time went on, she enjoyed spending time at home with her husband, children, and grandchildren.

Christmas will always be remembered with her baking dozens of anise cookies that her kids and grandkids would decorate and then eat. Decorating the Christmas tree included an elaborate village underneath that her husband would help her with, and wrapping lots of presents for family and friends.
