Salt Lake City, UT- Susan passed away peacefully on Monday after a long and courageous battle with cancer. She was surrounded by her children, mother and loving husband.
Susan was born in Champagne, IL. to Glenn & Margaret Irwin. She made her home in Macon, GA for 20+ years where she raised her four children.
Susan retuned to school at Wesleyan College and graduated with a B.A. in English in 1999. She immediately started teaching high school literature and religion where she expanded the minds and touched the lives of so many of her students. She was a teacher at both Mount de Sales Academy and Woodfield Academy in Macon and for the last 6 years taught religion at Judge Memorial Catholic High School in Salt Lake City, UT.
Susan is survived my her husband Mitch Monserret; children Mary Brenna Barrineau, Terence Heenan, Shannon Arminio and Catie Mae Johnson; her 3 grandsons and 1 granddaughter; mother Margaret Irwin; brother Blake Irwin; sister Valerie Kessler; brother-in-law Kendall Kessler; other surviving members include her daughter-in-law, sons-in-law, nieces, nephews, uncles, aunts and her Monserret family. Susan is preceded in death by her father Glenn Irwin and sister-in-law Jamie Irwin.
Services were held this weekend at Starks Funeral Parlor in Salt Lake City, UT. Susan's wishes were for donations to be made to Judge Memorial Catholic High School or The Huntsman Cancer Institute. Both places went above and beyond in care and support for Susan. Her family is eternally grateful to the staff of both places.

I had the privilege of having Mrs.Monserret as my English teacher for 2 years in high school. Her smile and kindness were infectious. She was the type of teacher who loved and never gave up on her students. Sending love and prayers to the family during this difficult time.

I was so blessed to have met her in my first year of being diagnosed. Her amazing spirit and faith was what got me drawn to her. I feel heartbroken as I did lose faith while going through my cancer journey, and here this woman never lost faith nor smile for anyone she met. Will forever have a place in my heart and memory of you Ms. Susan.

I had the privilege of knowing Susan when she taught at Mount de Sales Academy in Macon, GA. She always had such a sweet and loving spirit and was always smiling!!
As I have prayed for Susan daily since her battle with cancer began, I will continue to pray for her family. May God comfort you all during this very difficult time.

I knew Susan briefly and found her to be a lovely lady to know. Susan was most kind, spoke always in a positive, optimistic way offering others great peace of mind.

It is with sadness and love that I remember Susan. I remember when Susan told her religion class at Judge Memorial High School that my son was in that she had breast cancer. At a parent teacher conference I told her that I would be praying for her complete healing. I kept that promise and now that Susan is no longer with us I pray that GOD will comfort her family during this very difficult time. Susan is a beautiful angel now watching over her family from heaven. May GOD Bless and comfort you. Emily Wilson

It is with sadness and love that we bid good-by to this beautiful angel. Susan was an amazing teacher while my son attended Judge Memorial High School. When she was diagnosed with this terrible disease during a parent-teacher conference I told Susan I would be praying for healing for her, and I can say that I continued to pray for her and now that she has gone to heaven and no longer in pain, I now pray for comfort for Susan's family as she is laid to rest. GOD Bless you now and always.

Susan, we have all been blessed by knowing you and indeed you are already missed by so very many. In loving memory of you, Aunt Nita.
