T Today's Salon on Aug 20, 2020

Susan was a client at Today's Salon for many years. She always came in with a bright smile and was friendly to everyone. She would talk about her love of Ballroom dancing. We were all in shock when she told us of her illness. She will surely be missed. Our prayers go out to her family.

Susan was a light in this world. She was a wonderful volunteer at our ministry and loving friend. She was a blessing. I will miss you but your home now free and with Jesus. Prayers for the family.

R Regina Wilkes on May 16, 2020

Mom, it has been exactly 1 week since your passing and I have to say it’s finally starting to hit that your no longer with us.
As much as I miss you I am so happy you are at peace and with Jesus, the angels, the saints and all our loved ones.
I imagine you right now, introducing yourself and catching up with many wonderful people. Laughing, eating, having wine and dancing.
I pray for your strength, guidance and wisdom to come to us all.
I pray you visit us in our dreams.
We love you so much and thank you for everything you have done.
You were and are a truly amazing person that I have had the honor of calling you “my mother”.

L Lisa DiMaulo on May 16, 2020

I’ll always remember good times with the Milicia family and Susan. Always kind and generous, Susan was there when Regina and I needed her, whether feeding us meals, braving noisy boy band concerts, or taking us to the mall or movies.

I couldn't have picked a better neighbor, and family, to grow up next to.

My prayers are with Anthony, Nicky, and Regina, and all those who loved her.

M Maryann Gatto on May 15, 2020

Thank you for your strong faith that was present with all of our teenage questions about the world and God. I’ll always remember when you said “Jesus is bigger than the evil in this world”. Rest In Peace until we meet again.

J Jennifer on May 10, 2020

Aunt Sue, no amount of words could ever express how much we all love you and will miss you, but we know that you are at peace and reuniting with family and friends that were lost before you. You are an inspiration to us all and always will be....So generous kind and loving, always sharing good wisdom and your never ending unconditional love for all. We are all better for having you in our lives and will remain that way with your spirit in our hearts. Love you always and forever.

C Connie, Nick and Vincent Montana on May 10, 2020

My heart breaks for all of you who loved Susan. She was a loving, warm, and giving woman. She welcomed me and mine into her home and family without a second thought. The world has lost a beautiful soul. Our love to all of you. -- Connie, Nick and Vincent Montana

A Angelo on May 10, 2020

Susan was one of a kind. She was a rock to her husband and children, a great sister to her siblings and in-laws, great friend to many, and an amazing aunt to all of her nieces, nephews, and grand nieces and nephews.

As I grew older, she gave advice I will always remember. My kids came to look at her as a second grandmother after the passing of my mom and always cherished their time with her. I hope she realizes just how many lives she touched. We are all better people because of her.

May she Rest In Peace, free of the pain that never stopped her from smiling. Until we meet again, dear Aunt Susan.
