Susan Barnes Drew

Born in Alameda, California and raised in Columbia, Susan graduated from AC Flora High School ('63) and earned a Bachelor of Arts Degree from Coker College ('67). After a brief career as a social worker in Charleston, she married and returned to Columbia to raise a family. She had two devoted daughters, Jacqueline & Jenny Crouse. She later met and married the love of her life, Mike Drew, in 1979.

She was an exceptionally generous and thoughtful soul; always going out of her way to make others feel special with a kind word or sweet gesture. She loved all animals; Spanish guitar & folk music; family vacations; and doting on her family and friends. She was an extraordinary wife, mother, daughter, sister, cousin, sister-in-law, and friend. She will be enormously missed by all who knew her.

She is survived by her husband, Mike Drew; her two daughters, Jacqueline Crouse of Suwanee, GA and Jenny Crouse of Columbia SC; and her brother, Rudy Barnes, Jr. (Jeanette) of Little Mountain SC.
