Susan was a devoted friend to all she knew, she spent countless hours catching up and serving her friends and family. One of many families whom she made a special connection with was the Sloan family. She was referred to as Aunt Susan by their children, who each she welcomed with open arms whenever they were in the Salt Lake area. They were an integral part of her life and she loves each of them dearly.

Susan devoted much time and effort organizing events and locating classmates for the class reunions of the Viewmont High School class of 1975. Susan had the great joy of reconnecting with her seminary teacher Brother Gale several years ago. She organized a tribute in his honor for a man who gave so much to his students.

Susan’s passion for travel led to her owning her own travel agency, Around the World Travel. She was able to visit so many wonderful locations during her career however, she was proud to visit all 50 of the United States prior to entering the travel industry. Her greatest joy was meeting with clients who were planning their first cruise.

Her children were able to work within the family business, they have gained so much experience in the travel industry and will be forever grateful.

Susan spent many windy nights sitting in her living room listening to her police scanner.
