Obituary published on Legacy.com by Crosby Funeral Home on Oct. 5, 2025.
Susan Young Carter, age 54, of Savannah, Georgia passed away Friday, October 3, 2025 at her residence after a short illness. She was born in Hawkinsville, Georgia June 2, 1971 to James Entrekin and Brenda Prince Entrekin. She made Alma her home for several years before moving to Savannah for work.

Mrs. Carter was District Manager for Hardee's and a member of Ten Mile Baptist Church.

Survivors include her husband of 22 years, Glenn Liston Carter; four children, Joshua Young (Courtney) of Hazlehurst, Trent Young (Abby), Joel Young (Rebeca) of Savannah and Samantha Thornton (Derrick) of Alma; four grandchildren, Emma, Lawton, Anna Kate & Lenzie; brothers, Ricky Entrekin (Beth) of Danville and Tony Entrekin (Shanna) of Sumner; several nieces and nephews and her grand dog, Enzo.

Susan wanted people attending to dress like they were going to a celebration not a funeral. She specifically requested that people dress colorful and not feel the need to wear only black. Susan was of life and wanted her home going to reflect the same.
