Susan had a tremendous zest for life, completing her Wellesley education at age 40, she went on to earn an MBA from Simmons College at age 42. She then joined the work force as a management consultant, working with school business officers throughout Massachusetts. She had an intense love of the water and was an avid sailor and swimmer. Her real joy was spending time with family on family vacations and gatherings.
