Susan Rotter Obituary

BYRAM - Susan Rotter (Katz), 64, of Byram for 37 years, passed away Jan. 6, 2014.

Services will be held at 11:30 a.m. today at the Beth Israel Cemetery chapel, located at 1000 Woodbridge Center Drive (GPS address) in Woodbridge.

Susan leaves her husband, Larry; sons, Kenneth, of Westfield, and David, of New Brunswick; daughter, Jodi, of Kenvil; sisters, Cinthia Raucher and Sandy Spinner; and grandsons, Maxwell and Benjamin.

An executive recruiter for a number of years, she last held a post with Emergency Medical Associates of Livingston, placing physicians, nurses and PAs in E.R. positions. An accomplished amateur ballroom and Latin dancer, she and Larry competed in both categories for the past six years. She was said to have a "psychic" gift of being able to locate missing people and pets, which aided in returning loved ones and pets to their families.

Shiva will be noon to 6 p.m. Thursday, Jan. 9, and noon to 4 p.m. Friday, Jan. 10, at the home of Jodi Rotter, 80 N. Hillside Ave. in Kenvil and 2 to 7 p.m. Sunday, Jan. 12 and Monday, Jan. 13, at Kenneth Rotter's home, located at 649 Westfield Ave. in Westfield.

Donations would be appreciated to the American Cancer Society.
