Susan's obituary
In loving memory of my mother, Susan "Susie Q" Burgess, who passed away on October 19, 2022. She was the most loving mother of Karilyn Burgess, and of Kaelyn Goodwin, whom she loved as her own. She always had her mother Carole Morin, who was loving, protective, and remained a place of safety for Susan always. She was the younger sister of Daniel Morin, who she always looked up to and loved so much. Her Aunt, Diane Richardson, always remained close, and always remained loving, no matter what.
Susan will be deeply, truly missed by all who knew her. My mother was a kind, fierce, caring, and giving person who always put the needs of her family and friends before her own. She was an unbelievably strong woman who faced too many difficult and painful challenges in her life with courage, strength, authenticity and dignity. Despite all her obstacles, my mother's fiery and spicy spirit warmed and touched the lives of all who knew her. My mother was a source of inspiration to us all and she will be deeply missed by everyone whose lives she warmed.
Growing up, Susan was there for me as much as she could be, whether I needed help with homework or just (her right) shoulder to cry on. She was a woman of intense strength and she instilled in us the importance of independence, hard work and sticking up for oneself. My mother was a true, free spirit.
