Susan Kay Moore, born on May 11, 1957, in Dayton, Ohio, passed away on October 2, 2025, surrounded by her loving family. Her vibrant spirit and immeasurable generosity touched the lives of all who had the pleasure of knowing her. A proud graduate of Belmont High School, Class of 1975, Susan embarked on a fulfilling career in Customer Service that spanned her lifetime. She found particular pride in her years at Premier Health in Dayton, where her exceptional dedication earned her the distinction of "Employee of the Month" for the entire company.
Susan was not only known for her professionalism and unwavering commitment but also for the artistic soul she nurtured throughout her life. Her creative passions manifested in her love for painting, crocheting, cake decorating, and woodworking. These talents were often shared with family and friends, and many were fortunate to receive her handcrafted gifts, which truly reflected her heart's warmth.
Those who knew Susan would agree that she never met a stranger. With a heart of gold, she was always there for others, offering support and kindness whenever it was needed. Her humor and infectious laughter lightened the lives of those around her. Above all, her children, Candace Dell and Brad (Brittany) Moore, were the core of her being. They were her heart and spirit, and she cherished every moment as their mother.
Susan enjoyed immersing herself in the world of Disney, reflecting her playful and imaginative nature. She was an active member of the Hoot Painting Club and the Decorative Artists Guild of Southwestern Ohio (DAGSO), where she found great joy and companionship among fellow artists.
She leaves behind her loving children, Candace and Brad (Brittany) Moore; her dear sister, Carol (William) Bohne; her nephews, Zachary (Anna) Bohne and Erik Bohne; and her companion, Ed Smith. Susan was preceded in death by her dear parents, Robert "Bob" and Janice Pressler, who undoubtedly welcomed her with open arms.
As we remember Susan, we honor the remarkable woman she was—a devoted mother, a spirited artist, and a friend to many. Her legacy of love and kindness will live on in the hearts of all who were fortunate enough to know her.
Services will be held by her family at a later date.
