She moved to Auburn in 1997 to pursue her degree in education. She graduated from Auburn University with a Master's Degree and began a 25 year career teaching Spanish first at Smiths Station High School, ending at Auburn Junior High School. She sincerely enjoyed her work, her students, and her coworkers. Spending time with friends and family was her favorite pastime.
An avid traveler, Susan's career took her to Mexico and Spain to immerse herself in the Spanish culture and language. Through her church, she took mission trips to Africa and Peru. She had plans to do so much more!
Susan was a devoted member of Lakeview Baptist Church, Auburn, where, when she could no longer attend in person, would watch services online. She was a true believer in the promises of Christ and a faithful servant of the Lord. She would encourage all to follow Christ so we can be reunited in Heaven.
Susan is preceded in death by her father (Erwin, d. 2016) and survived by her mother (Martha) and sister (Ruth) who love her dearly and will miss her always.
A graveside service for Susan will be held Monday, August 22nd, at 2 P.M. at Mesopotamia Cemetery in Eutaw, Alabama.
In lieu of flowers, Susan would ask donations be made to Casa Gloria: https://misionvidanueva.info/casagloria/#home
