“Celebrating my mom’s 100th birthday with her – four years ago,” Susan had started, alongside a photo of her with her mom during Jeanette‘s 100th birthday dinner. “There were toasts to her and stories of her growing up in Pennsylvania’s Pocono Mountains and lots of love and music and laughter.”
She continued her tribute, writing that “three weeks ago I received a call saying that my mother had suddenly taken a turn towards end of life – I only hoped and prayed I would get to her in time – I am eternally grateful to God and her wonderful hospice nurses, that I did.”
“I posted a Happy 104th Birthday tribute to my mom in March – but some things bear repeating,” Susan added, “I’ve always mentioned how spunky my mom was – I’m sure that determination really helped her to reach 104! My mother was born in 1917 during The Spanish Flu, she saw World War I, the Great Depression, World War II, the Korean War, Vietnam, the birth of the Internet and the Covid-19 Pandemic.”
She continued, “My mom was a Registered Nurse receiving her training and earning her degree at Fordham University. She became an OR nurse and, along with my dad, was a member of The Greatest Generation.”
“My mom was a survivor and thriver – and I am so thankful to God that she was my mom??.”
Susan most recently was seen walking in the Go Red For Women fashion show.
