She had a passion for animals and was fond of watching Pitbulls and Parolees while doing crossword puzzles and coloring books. After retirement, Suzi enjoyed spending time as an avid reader and watching her shows, General Hospital and the girls on The View. Suzi took tremendous pride in her children and grandchildren and is survived by her beloved pet Yorkie, Rosie.
