Susan was born on August 18, 1941 to Mr. and Mrs. LeeRoy McEvoy in Chicago, Illinois.

Sue Tomion had this to say about her best friend: “Susan was a wonderful friend, my best friend! She was sincere, trustworthy, (could be counted on to keep our childhood secrets). She always looked on the positive side of things, never wanting to dwell on any negative news. During our school years, we spent many hot, summer days on and in the water…. boating, swimming, and her favorite, waterskiing. She was good, too. Susan loved God and looked for the best in people and situations, at least most of the time. However, she did have a stubborn streak, that was impenetrable. So many precious memories will keep her alive in our hearts. She will be missed!”

Her loving husband, Thomas is left to cherish her memory. They were happily married for over 50 years.
