Susan Thibo

I have known Susan Thibo since childhood in Bay Village, Ohio. Although we were fairly close in age she often babysat for my younger sisters and I. Susan was always full of life, I can hear her laugh. I remember her wedding - it was and still is by far the most fun event I can remember. Later after graduating from college I sold Susan & David their first home in Berea, Ohio and remember the birth of their 3 children, Sam, Nick and Elizabeth ("Rosebud"). The Welsch and Thibo families were...

Dear Thibo Family,
My thoughts & prayers are with all of you during this very difficult time. Sam, Nick, & Elizabeth.....may God keep his arms around all of you.
I knew Susan at Magnificat H.S. Then we really got to know each other in August, 1969, we both married that month and both of us reunited in Cincinnati....what a blast we had. When I returned to Cleveland in 1970, Susan ALWAYS stopped by whenever she came "back home". She was one of the truly nicest gals I've ever known. ...

S usan saw God in the life that
she had.
U nceasingly praised Him, could
not be sad.
S howed love for fam'ly and all
that she knew.
A lways tried hard to be faithful
and true.
N ow she's in heaven with God her
best friend.

T hibo family her pride to the end.

Thank you everyone for your support. Susan was a great sister and friend and will be missed dearly. I pray I can carry on her spirit and strength in all that I do. I hope I can be as dynamic a teacher as she was. She taught me so much about life and learning.I can feel her spirit with me in my classroom everyday.

Thank you all for writing to this site so I can read more comments from people. It was truly amazing to meet all of her friends and students. There are poetry books available if anyone wants one. Contact me at [email protected]
Although it still feels like a truck ran over me, I have developed a tolerance for the grief for its ability to heighten and illuminate all the honest caring and love in the world. Thanks, Nancy Thibo

I knew Susan from OROC, OutRun Ovarian Cancer. She was an inspiration to me as a fellow ovarian cancer survivor and she was a great lady.

Please accept my condolences on the passing of Susan. I have so many fond memories of the whole Thibo family, especially Mary Beth and Mrs. Thibo. God bless you all.

To Susan's Family & Friends,
I met Susan once and that was at The Gathering Place. I have ovarian cancer and I was attending the same support group as Susan. I didn't really get to speak to her but we made eye contact frequently that evening and I knew there was a connection. I left group that night in awe of her. I am sorry I didn't get to know her better. I won't forget her.
