I send my love and sympathy to the all Susan's family and close friends and "friends like family", who we know, she adored all!!  We started out in first grade together and even in the third grade  Our third grade class got to go to Susan's dad's dairy farm to watch how we "GOT MILK"!  That was one of the coolest field trips ever!!   We went through all 12 grades  and We  graduated together at good ol' Allen Jay High School,Class of '75!    She was a friend you could trust and depend on. She had a strong conviction to her faith.  Oh and how she loved to share praises and her love of music with her voice!  Recently we had reconnected through church ongoings.  I needed some Happy Home flavorings  and a few weeks later, she needed a Chocolate Meringue pie for one of her church co- workers for a Christmas gift.  She had surveyed each person to know exactly what they'd like to have that would be special to them.  And I was honored for her to ask me.  She knew how I loved to bake!  That's how she took care of folks, meeting their needs and wants to share happiness and just being Susan.  We last spoke about 2 weeks prior to her passing and she was so excited about her new home and we had made plans to eat lunch together occasionally, since she would be close to where I worked.   My heart aches for our loss of such an amazing woman, yet rejoices for her gracious eternity!   I believe Susan would ask each of us to continue doing for others where she has left off!  So please keep Susan's attitude and gracious giving in your life.  Let God continue to shine through her teachings to each of us!  Rest in Peace my friend!  You will be missed by many!  Thanks for all you have brought to each of us!  Tanya 

Susan was a dear Christian soul. I remember the many times she held children’s revivals at Poplar Ridge when I was there. Her devotion to the Lord and especially to children was evident and consistent throughout her life. I so regret not being able to be at the service but I had an emergency in the congregation I serve. Prayers are with Susan’s family and the church families that will miss her.

I haven’t seen Susan for a good while but she and the Kids Klub called me recently to sing a belated Happy Valentine’s Day song as well as Jesus Lives Me. She never seemed to forget anybody. As all the others have mentioned, she always showed her love, kindness and spiritual soul; but I particularly enjoyed sharing our sense of humor and will miss that. 

I didn't know Susan personally, only through David's discription of her great work at Asheboro Friends Meeting and seeing the results through pictures and discriptions. She will be greatly missed by all.

When I think of Susan, I think of the quote from Oscar Wilde, “Some people bring happiness when they arrive and others bring happiness when they leave.”  Susan brought happiness to all those around her with her mischievous smile, kind words, love, and great sense of humor.  She truly lived her life for the Lord helping to bring others to Christ. 
I’m reminded of the song that I’m sure she sang many times, “This little light of mine, I’m going to let it shine..”. She certainly let her light shine.
Prayers go out to the family and all those who are mourning, even as we celebrate a life well lived.



Susan and Barbara were my very first friends - from the time I was a toddler - and Susan was kind and loving enough to keep up with me over the years. She has been so supportive of me during so many trying times in my life. I don't know what I will do this year when I don't get a message, letting me know that she's praying for me. My heart is broken. Celebrate in heaven with your family, my sweet friend!

Susan Coltrane was a youth leader for a while at Hopewell Friends Meeting.  What a love Susan had for the children and adults also.  She could make a bible story become real.  Everyone loved her.  She was a dear friends to many of us.  She would send encouraging notes and phone calls and kept in close contact with several in our church.   On the light side, she love pickled beets .  I would take her jars to the library and leave them on her desk if she wasn't in. Every time I canned beets I always thought of Susan.  I thank God for Susan's love and devotion to our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ and for the impact she had on so many young lives.   Know she is rejoicing in Heaven.  Peace and sympathy for her family and friends.

I’m shocked & heartbroken to hear this news.  Susan had the most infectious spirit:).  She always was the one to reach out to others & remind us that we were in her prayers. 
She messaged me to say she was buying Aunt Pinkies home & to look for an invite to her house warming…She was sooo excited & proud! 
I’m thankful Susan adopted the Aumans as family…which in turn meant she got the Johnsons too!  
For her family & friends…May ur hearts take joy knowing she is singing in the choirs of Heaven.
To Rita…Sis, my heart breaks for u.  It seemed no matter where u were…Susan & Fairfield Road were ur touch stone.  Susan loved u & ur family as much as her own…in fact, as she told me, she was family in her eyes. A friendship like yours is one of the most precious of gifts… 
Man you heart be comforted by the laughter, love, friendship, & trials that u shared…  

Susan was so sweet. I’m so sad to hear of her passing. She recently showed me a picture I had drawn her when I was little and still kept an offering I gave her in her bible. She was so excited to move into her home and was telling me about a coffee table she was getting and going to put the offering and some other special keepsakes in for display. She also had me make her a glass dove. What a symbolic representation of peace❤️🕊 My deepest sympathy to the family. 

Barbara and family,
Susan had such a beautiful and nurturing spirit about her, and 
always was so giving and caring to everyone and especially the children . She always encouraged and prayed for me when hard times  arose. She will be truly missed, but we have the assurance that she is with her Savior

  Love and Prayers

Susan will surely be missed here-her time and energy with the kids at Asheboro Friends helped many find love and strength with God I know. I feel certain she spread his love and light everywhere she went! It made my day to see her at the library always. I would bet she had that effect on many of us throughout her path!

Susan was such a joyful part of our family. She was always cheerful and helpful. With her passing, there is a big hole in our lives.
I do know where to find her and someday I will.
Until then,
Keep em straight up there my dear friend!
  

Susan was a kind and gentle person. I worked with her for years at the library, and in all that time I never heard her say a cross word about anyone. She was a dedicated and skilled children's librarian. Her positive influence will be felt for many years.
