Susan Mottram Obituary
Susan began her working life as a secretary at Bolton-Emerson Americas in Lawrence, and then eventually started working in a daycare before retiring from retail. She enjoyed watching crime shows, savoring a good cup of coffee, going out to eat with her sisters, cheering on the Bruins, and, most of all, spending time with her family-especially her grandchildren and great-grandchildren. Susan was a simple yet feisty, strong-willed woman. Being home was her sanctuary and her comfort zone.
In addition to her parents, she was predeceased by her husband, Glen G. Mottram; her sister, Jane McKenna-Davis; and brother-in-law, Leo Mottram.
Susan will be deeply missed by her two sons, Glen G. Mottram II of Meredith, NH., and Ryan Mottram of Weare, NH; cherished grandchildren, Lillia, Kennedy, Declan, Austin, Zakk, Keyla Hackett and her husband, Ricky of Haverhill; adored great-grandchildren McKenna, Skylar, and Richard Hackett III; sisters, Bette McKenna of Lawrence and Jean Currao of Newton, NH; brother-in-laws, Wayne Mottram of FL., and Allen Mottram of Salem, NH; sister-in-law, Gayle of Lawrence; brother-in-law, Sal Currao of Newton, NH. She also leaves behind many nieces, nephews, and extended family.
