Susan Mahovlich Obituary

Susan A. "Susie" Mahovlich, 68, of Jackson Road, St. Marys, passed away unexpectedly at her home on Saturday, March 30, 2024.
She was born on June 16, 1955 in St. Marys, a daughter of the late Gerald and Audrey Resch Smith. In May of 1986, she married the late Donald E. "Donnie" Mahovlich, who joined her in death on March 30, 2024. Together they shared nearly 38 years of marriage.
Susie was a graduate of St. Marys Area High School, class of 1973 and a member of Sacred Heart Church. She received her associate's degree from Olean Business College and worked as a secretary at Penn Highlands Elk for more than 35 years, and enjoyed the many friends she made there over the years. Susie enjoyed floating down the river, shopping, and her cats. Most of all, she loved spending time with her family, especially her grandchildren. She was a beautiful and kind lady who will be greatly missed by all who knew her.
She is survived by two daughters; Jenna (Justin Hinz) Mahovlich and Nicole (James) Merat, both of St. Marys, by a step-son; Brandon (Karen) Mahovlich of St. Marys and by her four beloved grandchildren; Ethan, Damian, Kenzie, and Kyndra. She is also survived by numerous nieces and nephews.

Sue was a kind and caring person.We had a connection thru her cats. When ever we met she would show me pictures of the cats.
I had two of Sue's cats, black and white tuxedo Tavish and beautiful calico Jessie Rose.
I will miss Sue greatly .
