Susan Dunlap Obituary
Susan was born on April 30, 1948 in St. Louis, Missouri to Mary Geraldine and Richard Holmes. She was raised and lived her life in St. Louis. She worked over 20 years in the Financial Aid Office at St. Louis University and enjoyed her time there helping students realize their college aspirations. She enjoyed times with family, watching movies (especially John Wayne's westerns), and Saturdays cheering the Fighting Irish of Notre Dame. Her favorite past time was her mystery books. Susan's best Sunday afternoons included a rainy day, a warm cup of Earl Grey and a new murder mystery.
Susan is survived by her son John M. Dunlap, her brother and sister-in-law Ronald and Joyce Holmes of St. Louis MO, her brother and sister-in-law Donald and Dianne Holmes of Fredericksburg VA, numerous nieces, nephews, and friends.
