Susan Postma passed away under the compassionate care of medical providers at Porter Memorial Hospital on April 17, 2020 due to complications from the COVID virus.
Susan is survived by her sister Julie Wilkin, brothers George and Sidney Postma and numerous nieces and nephews.
Susan was born in Denver at Porter Hospital to Dr. and Mrs. George Postma Sr. on October 4, 1948. She graduated from the University of Colorado with a degree in music education in 1970. She had a life-long love for classical music and the fine arts. She was a member of the First Christian Reformed Church in Denver. Her favorite hymn is "Altogether Lovely". Susan's life was colored by a long struggle with psychiatric illness which eventually led to the sensitive provision of care and nurture at Holly Heights Nursing Home. In previous years, she had provided musical entertainment for care center residents by playing the piano during the midday meal.
Services will be deferred to a later date due to the present circumstances of sheltering at home. Donations may be sent to First Christian Reformed Church at 1814 South Emerson St., Denver Colo. 80210.
