Susan Marie Lang

Born on September 11, 1967, in Chico, California, Susan was the youngest child of Stephen N. and Eileen J. (Polzner) Dillon. She is survived by her siblings: Kathleen Dillon, Chuck Dillon, Jerry Dillon (Cheryl), Marie Zottola, Patrick Dillon (Becky), and Rita Dillon (Dan Olson); as well as her nieces and nephews: Kendra Dennis (Jason), Megan Ressler (Darren), Jeremiah Dillon (Rachel), Sean Dillon (Chrissy), Alyssa Zottola, John Zottola (Dana), Michael Dillon, Katy Hallberg (Alex), and Jack Hallberg.

Growing up in Medina, Ohio, Susan attended Liverpool Elementary School in Valley City. With the family’s relocation to Chehalis, Washington, in 1978, Susan attended Olympic Middle School and graduated from W.F. West High School in 1985. She completed her education at St. Martin’s College in Olympia, Washington, with a degree in marketing.

Susan will be remembered for her love of rock and roll music and her love of animals. She was forever a worker-bee, always cleaning the house, doing the dishes, weeding the garden, and carrying on for Mom in the kitchen by baking Pop’s favorite treats. Susan’s memory will live in the hearts of those who were fortunate enough to know her on her best days.

A memorial service will be held on January 30, 2025, at St. Joseph’s Church in Chehalis, Washington, where family and friends will gather to celebrate Susan’s life. She will be buried with her beloved mother and father at Claquato Cemetery in Chehalis.

Rest in peace, Susan. You will be deeply missed and forever cherished.
