In her younger years, Suvatana enjoyed snorkeling, swimming and traveling—embracing the beauty of the world around her. As the years went on, her greatest joy became caring for her children and grandchildren. She always looked forward to trying new foods. Some of her favorite foods included Thai food, spaghetti and mole. She was also fond of going to the casino with loved ones, where playing the slots and poker was among her favorite pastimes.

He maketh me to lie down in green pastures:

he leadeth me beside the still waters.

He restoreth my soul:

he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake.

Though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,

I will fear no evil: for thou art with me;

thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.

– Psalms 23:2–4
