Sussane Mae Crocker

The huge heart and compassionate soul of Sussane M. Crocker 67, of Keene, NH, will be greatly missed with her sudden passing on Wednesday, March 9, 2022 at the Cheshire Medical Center Dartmouth Hitchcock, Keene.

She was born in Keene, NH on November 9, 1954, the daughter of Robert and Pauline Goodell. Sussane grew up in Marlborough, NH, attending local schools.

She resided in Key West, Florida and Westford, Massachusetts for several years before returning to Keene three years ago to be closer to her family, especially her grandchildren whom she cherished with all her heart.

In Keene, Sussane worked at Fritz Fries Restaurant and with Hannaford’s Supermarket, both in Keene. At the time of her passing, she had been working for the past year with the Monadnock Food Co-Op, assisting many customers in the salad bar and deli area. She was a dedicated and hard worker for everyone that she was privileged to help.

Sussane’s kind heart and willingness to help everyone that she met, allowed her to develop many wonderful friendships. She cared for all, providing a source of positivity and smile that brighten any room that she entered.

Sussane always remained positive, with a smile on her face, during her own struggles with a long and courageous battle with cancer. She loved spending time at the ocean, and she found a special place in her heart for her cat, Juniper.

Family meant the world to Sussane, and she took great pride in the many wonderful memories created with them, especially those with her grandchildren.

She will be greatly missed by many, especially her children, Heidi L. Carlisle and her husband, Don, of Nelson, NH, James Crocker and his wife, Melissa, of New Ipswich, NH, William "Billy" Crocker and his wife, Danielle, of Lancaster, MA; her grandchildren, Hayden Ranagan, Sydney Carlisle, Kevin Ranagan, Samuel Carlisle, William Carlisle, Kennedy Crocker, Casey Crocker, Logan Eck, Dominic Eck, Jaxson Crocker, Bentley Crocker; her siblings, Lynda Adams and her husband, Doug, of Roxbury, NH, Becky Ferris and her husband, Stan, of Kingsland, GA, Robert Goodell and his wife, Lisa, of TN, Beverly Harper, Victoria McCormick, Rose Brennan, Flossie Biel; a sister-in-law, Debbie Goodell, of Swanzey, NH; many nieces, nephews and extended family members as well as several dear friends in Westford, Key West and in Keene. A brother, Larry Goodell, and a sister, Dusty Maki predeceased Sussane.
