Susan Katherine Bone, 74, of Oakland City, Indiana (formerly of Somerville, Indiana) went home to be with our Lord Jesus Christ on Sunday, February 2, 2025. Susan passed at Good Samaritan Home and Rehabilitation Center in Oakland City, Indiana, where she had been a resident for the past 6 ½ years. She was born in Huntingburg, Indiana on July 8, 1950, to the late Eugene and Mary (Harris) Bone.
She was our beloved sister, cousin, aunt, and friend and will be sorely missed. Susan lived in Somerville, Indiana for most of her life, and attended Mackey High School. She was a devout Catholic and attended Blessed Sacrament Catholic Church in Oakland City, Indiana for many years.
Susan worked in restaurants around Oakland City before being employed at Good Samaritan Home and Rehabilitation Center in Oakland City, Indiana in the dietary department for 25 years. She was a long-time fan of Indiana Hoosiers basketball. She enjoyed watching St. Louis Cardinals baseball games, collecting dolls, reading, especially, Agatha Christie mysteries, shopping, and eating out. Susan was an animal lover and had many dogs and cats as pets over the years.
Susan is survived by her loving sister, Karen Bone of Oakland City, Indiana; brother, Paul Bone and niece, Stephanie Bone, both of Yuba City, California; nephew, Steven Bone of Panama City, Florida; and many cousins and friends.
Susan is preceded in death by her parents, Eugene and Mary Bone
