Susan is also survived by four children: Tom (Cal), Carolyn (Jon) Crowley, Tim and Jim; and also 11 very special grandchildren: Megan Wagner, Courtney Urban (Kevin) and Kathleen Wagner; Chip, Kelly and Patrick Crowley; Joey and Corinne Wagner; Kimberlin, Anne and Evelyn Wagner.
Susan and her husband particularly loved spending time in Lake Arrowhead and Maui with their families and attending the many activities and events of all the grandchildren.
Interment will be held at the San Gabriel Cemetery. Mortuary services are being handled by Pierce Brothers Mortuary in San Gabriel.
A Catholic Funeral Mass and Memorial gathering will be scheduled at a later date. In lieu of flowers, it is requested that a donation be made in Susan’s memory to Saints Felicitas & Perpetua Church, 1190 Palomar Road, San Marino, CA 91108.
