Susie was so blessed with a large family on both the Parsley and Light side. She was also blessed with so many friends from church, work and just everyone she met. Therefore, this is a tough time with the Covid; therefore, we are requesting the funeral to be reserved for family if at all possible. We encourage friends that want to attend her service, to attend the viewing on Tuesday. A mask is required at the funeral home.
