Susanne Opsitnick Obituary

Published by Legacy on Oct. 11, 2024.
SUSANNE OPSITNICK (nee Voll), age 64. Beloved wife of Drew for 44 years; devoted mother of Andy (Katie); cherished grandmother of Claire and Ethan; caring sister of Linda Bacik (Bob – deceased) and Patricia Murphy (Dan); dear daughter of the late William and Anne Voll. Also survived by loving nieces, nephews, cousins and friends.
To know her was to love her. Proud mother and grandmother, Sue lived for God and those she loved. To have her as a grandmother was to have a real-life Mary Poppins, who made everything a little bit sweeter. For those lucky enough to have her as a part of their family, she was a compassionate and nurturing presence, always giving selflessly. If you weren't a part of her family, she would still probably make you a pumpkin roll and invite you over for dinner.
Sue dedicated her late career to the dental school at Case Western Reserve University. Known for her kindness and generosity, she touched the lives of coworkers, students, and patients alike. Sue enjoyed spending her time with family and friends, visiting the lake, and spoiling her grandchildren.
