Suzanna Zephirin

Suzanna Zephirin, born in Plaisance, Haiti on January 1, 1947, was a beautiful woman who gracefully walked this world with her wisdom and determination. Not only was she a fierce woman, but she was also a woman who danced, sang, and took care of her loved ones as if every day was her last day. Despite the disadvantages in her upbringing, she made sure to create a life full of positivity and enjoyment for her loved ones. She was an awesome mother, daughter, sister, grandmother, great grandmother, and mother-in-law. We must remember that Suzanna was not your typical woman. Not only did she enjoy watching movies, but she was interested in watching sports. She loved watching boxing, soccer, football, and basketball. Her weekends consisted of her knitting clothes and dancing till the next day.
Although she has passed, she will forever live in our hearts. She wouldn't want us to cry or be upset. Instead, she would want us to be strong and continue on her legacy. Just like Mother Tersea, Suzanna has graced many people with her kindness. She has done everything from taking care of those in need to donating as much of her belongings to her hometown. We must remember her in this light despite the unfortunate circumstances. We ask everyone to stay strong as this is what Suzanna Zephirin would have wanted.

Creole Version:
Suzanna Zephirin, ki fèt nan Plaisance, Ayiti nan dat 1ye janvye 1947, se te yon bèl fanm ki te mache nan mond sa a grasyeuz ak sajès ak detèminasyon li. Non sèlman li te yon fanm feròs, men li te tou yon fanm ki danse, chante, ak pran swen moun li renmen yo kòm si chak jou se te dènye jou li. Malgre dezavantaj yo nan levasyon li, li te asire w ke li kreye yon lavi plen pozitivite ak plezi pou moun li renmen yo. Li te yon bèl manman, pitit fi, sè, grann, grann, ak bèlmè. Nou dwe sonje ke Suzanna pa t yon fanm tipik ou. Non sèlman li te renmen gade fim, men li te enterese nan gade espò. Li te renmen gade boksè, foutbòl, foutbòl, ak baskètbòl. Wikenn li yo te fèt nan trikote rad li ak danse jouk demen.
Malgre ke li te pase, li pral viv pou tout tan nan kè nou. Li pa ta vle nou kriye oswa fache. Olye de sa, li ta vle nou dwe fò epi kontinye sou eritaj li. Menm jan ak Manman Tersea, Suzanna te fè anpil moun gras ak jantiyès li. Li te fè tout bagay soti nan pran swen moun ki nan bezwen yo bay kòm anpil nan afè li nan vil natal li. Nou dwe sonje li nan limyè sa a malgre sikonstans malere yo. Nou mande tout moun pou yo rete djanm paske se sa Suzanna Zephirin ta vle.
