Suzanne graduated from Mt. View H.S. in 2011 in Stafford, VA, and with honors from the University of Illinois in 2017 with a degree in History. Suzanne worked at the Meyer Produce Farm for several years. She was employed as a greeter and then in the Produce dept. at the Walmart in Savoy , IL. She described her position as a greeter on steroids! 

Suzanne enjoyed baking, working outdoors, latch hook, watching Anime, creating a Christmas Village, decorating for the holidays, and playing board games with family and friends. She also enjoyed playing with her two cats. Suzie was very bubbly and her smile could light up the room.
