She was the daughter of the late Charles Dilly and Ruby Gladys Epley Sluder. In addition to her parents she was preceded in death by her brother Charles Sluder.
Susie will be remembered as a beloved presence whose compassionate spirit and kind-hearted nature touched those who had the privilege of knowing her. In the quiet ways that matter most—through steady care, gentle understanding, and sincere regard for others—she offered comfort and warmth that will not be forgotten.
Her life, marked by grace and consideration, leaves an enduring imprint on the hearts of family, friends, and all who were drawn to her goodness. Susie’s memory will be cherished with deep respect and lasting affection.
She is survived by her sister Cathy Beeker of Hickory; her nephew James Billings of Hickory and her niece Mary Kerns of Hickory.
