At Susan’s wishes, services will be private at the convenience of the family. Susan loved flowers. She loved her garden. Her family respectfully suggests that instead of sending plants, floral arrangements, etc. that you plant a bulb, spread some seeds, plant a rose bush on your porch, in your backyard and watch them grow and remember Susan. Memorial contributions can also be made to the Hershey Hope Lodge, 125 Lucy Ave, Hummelstown, PA 17036.
Kull-Heizenroth Funeral Home Inc., Ashland is in charge of the arrangements. Charles Heizenroth III, Supervisor.
