June 4, 1943 - March 10, 2026 of Lighthouse Point, Florida.
Susan went to be with her Lord. She was surrounded by her loving family. Daughter Kim Petilli, son-in-law Gene Petilli, granddaughter Kira Petilli, sister Janet Jackson, and wonderful boyfriend Don Pien.
She was the beloved aunt of Jonathan and Mollie Jackson and of Evan and Andrea Jackson, as well as the cherished great-aunt of Colton, Shane, Sutton, and Scarlett.
Susan was born in Pittsburgh, PA. She was a wonderful woman who deeply cared for all of God’s living creatures. People, animals and even bugs. She spent her days starting off with a workout and then she would proceed to travel all around Pittsburgh, feeding and taking care of stray animals. Susan also volunteered in the soup kitchens to make sure the hungry were fed. She enjoyed serving them and sitting and chatting with them over a nice cup of hot coffee. She continued to do the same when she moved to Florida to be with her family. She never walked by someone or something that was in need of help.
Susan was not only loved by her family, but also her gym friends, condo neighbors, employees at the local stores that she cherished seeing every day.
