Susan Lee Ridenhour, 76, of Hazelwood, Missouri, passed away unexpectedly on Sunday, March 24, 2024. She leaves behind her sons, Doug (Sonya) Ridenhour and Todd Ridenhour, a loving grandmother to Christy, Tyler, and Joey, and a great-grandmother to Amelia, Jaxson, and Hudson. Her sisters, Judy Krshul and Pat Lee will miss Susan greatly. She is preceded in death by her beloved Frank and her parents, Lester and Myrtle Pott.
As a world traveler, Susan found her greatest joy in exploring the far reaches of the globe alongside her beloved sisters. Together, they traversed continents, embracing diverse cultures and creating unforgettable experiences that enriched their lives and strengthened their bond. She was a fan of the St. Louis Cardinals, and Susan cheered on her team with passion and enthusiasm.
Susan's heart was as vast as the world she explored, evident in her lifelong dedication to caring for others as a nurse. Her compassion knew no bounds as she selflessly gave of herself. In her quiet moments, Susan found solace and joy in the beauty of her garden, where she lovingly tended to her flowers and plants with a nurturing touch.
