Susan Parenteau Obituary
Tilton, NH - It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Susan Parenteau, who passed away peacefully on Tuesday, March 11th, 2025, at the age of 69 at Mountain Ridge Center in Franklin following a period of declining health due to dementia. Born on Tuesday, November 15th, 1955, in Laconia, NH. She cherished living in Tilton and Northfield most of her life. Susan lived a life filled with love, dedication, and warmth.
Susan proudly served as a Postmaster for the US Postal Service, a role she fulfilled with dedication and excellence for 35 years. Her career was marked by hard work and commitment, a testament to her strong work ethic and passion for serving her community.
Those who knew Susan will remember her love for the excitement of gambling, especially while playing Texas Hold'em and bingo. She was also an avid reader, often found with a book in hand. Perhaps most lovingly, she shared her life with her furry companion, Sweetie Pie, who brought her immense joy.
Susan is survived by her loving mother, Joanne Jordan, and her devoted children, Owen and Drew Parenteau. Her family also includes her siblings, Scott Jordan and his wife Dodie, Robert Jordan and his wife Nancy and Glen Jordan and his significant other Nancy. In addition, she leaves behind sister's Jill Jordan, Lynn Crosby and her husband Brad, Laurie Robichaud and her partner Mike Yarbrough. Susan will be missed by her cherished grandchildren, Ethan, Owen, and Collin Parenteau. Susan is also survived by many cousins, nieces and nephews and two aunts. She is preceded in death by her father, Robert J. Jordan, and her nephew, William Jordan.
The family would like to extend their deepest gratitude to the visiting nurses at the Granite VNA hospice for their compassionate care and support. In lieu of flowers, Susan's family asks that donations be made to a charity of one's personal choice in Susan's name, honoring her generous and giving spirit.
Visiting hours will be held at the Paquette-Neun Funeral Home, 104 Park St. in Northfield, NH, on Thursday, March 20th, 2025, from 11:00 am to 1:00 pm. Immediately following a reception will be at the American Legion, Post 49 in Northfield.
