A proud retiree of UAB, Susan served as Director of Compliance with dedication and integrity. In retirement, she found great joy in spending time at the lake, quilting, reading, gardening and traveling. Her love for her family—especially her grandchildren—was unwavering, and she was known for her thoughtful nature and giving spirit.
Susan’s memory will live on in the hearts of those who knew and loved her.
