Remember going over Aunt May house when Susan was a teenager..She was spunky, funny & very caring lady..She was the life of th party over & over at family functions..Although, I haven't seen or talked to her in 10 yrs.. I still love her to the moon & back..RIP Susan..
Susan was my cousin on my father's side. My father, John O'Brien was the younger brother to Susan's mother Mary (May).
I remember her laughing! We would visit aunt May with my Dad frequently and he would let us tag along. Susan was very kind to us children (we were about a decade younger), since my Dad was the youngest of 7 of the O'Brien clan. Susan would be doing her nails and have her hair up in curlers getting ready to go out. OH! I was so envious of her. She was funny and gracious at the same time.
I am sorry for you loss, but she remains in peace, now.
God Bless her family.
