Her creative side inspired her toward knitting, crocheting, sewing, rug hooking, cross stitching, quilting, beading and creating jewelry.Susan will be remembered for her welcoming and generous personality. Susan always opened her home for anyone in need. Susan had a kind ear, a warm smile and willingness to lend a hand. She was the best mom a daughter could have ever asked for. She was also a true and loving Meme to Gabi. They would go on adventures around town all the time. They would collect beads and crafts to do together. Those two would giggle all the time, They did stuff together that I couldn’t know about and they both loved the secrets that they kept from me.All year long, Susan looked forward to going to “upta camp”. She just loved lazily floating in the shallows while chatting and joking with family and friends. And no one enjoyed a summer cookout by the lake more than SuSu. It’s a guarantee the week wouldn’t end without a lobster feast, wrapped up with her famous blueberry dumplings. Susan was truly unique and one of a kind. She will be sadly missed by so many. Susan was predeceased by her parents, Charles and Sarah Pollock.She is survived by her daughter, Shanna Thompson (boogie) and husband Frederick Winterberg and three grandchildren, Gabriella Thompson, Annabel Winterberg and Harrison Winterberg.
