She was a fine artist who loved to sketch and water-color. She also knew and liked to work with antiques especially with prints and documents. In the kitchen, Susan was a very good cook and an excellent baker. Most of all, Susan was a kindhearted person, accepting of others, with a quiet sense of humor and a delightful laugh.

She was a strong gentle spirit and was much loved by her family and friends. She will be dearly missed. Susan was predeceased by her parents and her husband Warren C. Small. She is survived by her step- daughter Shannon Small, her sisters Priscilla Cunningham and Gail Stites, her brother Paul Andrews, and by many nieces, nephews and step-grandchildren.
