Susan grew up in Haddon Heights, NJ and graduated Haddon Heights High School in 1962. She was a dedicated employee for many years of Infocomp Corporation, Moorestown, and later explored a new career path working in the office of Chancellor Development in Haddonfield. Susan enjoyed her summers in North Wildwood with her family. For years, she found great joy spending long days on the beach, making drizzle castles, and collecting shells with her grandchildren. More recently, she could be found relaxing on the shore house deck sharing a warm, cheerful smile and a friendly wave with her loyal companion, Missy, and her husband always by her side. Baking Christmas cookies was a yearly tradition that Susan looked forward to sharing with her family. Crafting, browsing yard sales, and shopping at Boscov's were among her favorite past times. Susan was an avid crocheter. Sharing her handmade treasures, skillfully stitched with love, filled her heart with pride and happiness. Susan set a perfect example for her daughters and grandchildren who looked up to her as a role model. Susan's unwavering love, devotion, and strength will be embraced in the hearts of her family and friends forever.
