Susan Lazar Obituary

Susan Lazar, formerly of Frederick, passed away at her home in Windsor, CO on February 7, 2013, following a five-month battle with pancreatic cancer.

Born September 11, 1953 on Long Island, NY, she was the daughter of John and Grace Lazar.

She moved to California with her parents, where she grew up, went to school and became a registered nurse. She got married, had a daughter, Josephine, and worked in San Francisco area as a nurse.

Susan's daughter was hearing impaired. She learned about the schools for the deaf in the Washington and Frederick area, so they then moved to Frederick in order for her daughter to attend the local deaf school.

Susan lived in Frederick and worked for more than 20 years as a nurse. More recently, Susan moved to Colorado to be closer to her daughter.

Susan is survived by her daughter, Josephine and husband David Burle of Cheyenne, WY; her mother Grace Lazar and brother Edward of Reno, NV; and brothers Jonathan and James Lazar, of California.

She was predeceased by her father, a United Airline Capt. who died in 2003.

Susan was laid to rest in Windsor, CO with a private service attended by her family.

Dear Josie & family,
My deepest sympathy. I will always remember the wonderful Baker Park 4th of July celebrations at Susan's house. Your mother was the "grand hostess". God Bless.
