Suzanne (Suzy) was born April 6th, 1965 to parents Catherine and Joseph. She was born one day before her father Joseph's birthday, some might say the best birthday gift a dad could get. Suzy had one sibling her older brother John, who affectionately called her Suzy Q. She grew up on Weiland Road, and was always surrounded by the neighborhood kids, mostly boys. Suzy was tough and could hold her own with the De Angelis and DiPaola boys. Suzy was a HUGE Pittsburgh Steelers fan and always enjoyed tormenting her brother about his inferior Minnesota Vikings.
Suzy attended Greece Olympia High School, where she forged her own path as a great student athlete. She played multiple varsity sports including Soccer and Softball. Suzy was the pitcher for Olympia's Varsity Softball team and helped lead them to the first (and only) section V Championship in 1983.
After high school Suzy attended SUNY Geneseo. Where she made many lifelong friends and completed a degree in teaching. After College she began teaching and worked for Greece Central School District. She attended Nazareth and completed her Master's degree in computer science. Suzy also adored her favorite niece Erica Ann, whom shared her love for the Steelers.
Suzy spent a large portion of her life with her partner Giselle. They bought a home in Greece. Suzy enjoyed attending LPGA tournament, golfing, cooking, and gardening. Suzy was a huge animal lover, every living thing from the morning doves in the backyard to the many cats and her only dog Boccie.
She will be missed forever by her friends and family.
