Suzie overcame many obstacles when coming to the United States from France and into an Italian Household. She taught herself how to read, write and speak English using comic books and the early Dick and Jane readers.
Suzie and Jack spent many years enjoying their summer home in Roundtop, NY with friends and family. Suzie was an excellent cook, who could turn a meal prepared on a camping stove into gourmet delights! Family and friends would gather at her home during the holidays enjoying Christmas Cookies and Italian Olives made the old-fashioned way.
She enjoyed her grandchildren, and in her younger years could often be found cross-legged on the floor playing board games with them. She loved animals, especially dogs. She walked around her Brooklyn neighborhood with dog treats in her pocket for any dogs behind a fence, guard dogs and strays. The most aggressive dog would be seen wagging their tail as soon as Suzie came around the corner.
Suzie had a twinkle in her eyes and enjoyed a sense of humor. She would teach the staff at St. Elizabeth Home French sayings that were not really fresh, but she led them to believe they were.
She was loved by friends and family near and far and will surely be missed by all.
