Susan Kirkpatrick Obituary, Death – It is not accurate to say that Susan was merely a para-professional at DRHS; rather, she was the very essence of our school community. Because of her unwavering commitment and genuine warmth, she was an indispensable member of our theatrical shows, color guard team, and music department. Her warmth and dedication extended far beyond the classroom. Susan’s love and support for her children, Aly and Olivia, knew no borders, and her presence affected the lives of everyone she came in contact with. Her daughters were extremely fortunate to have her.
Susan, in her capacity as a paraprofessional, played a significant part in providing support to our staff and students. She did so by offering assistance and direction with unflinching patience and compassion. Her unwavering passion to her profession shone through in all that she did, and the level of dedication that she shown toward our school community was absolutely remarkable.
However, Susan’s influence was felt far beyond the bounds of the institution of education. Aly and Olivia’s mother, Susan, was a color guard parent and a theater mom, and she devoted her entire being to supporting her girls in whatever they were passionate about and pursuing. She was always there, unflinching in her love and support, whether it was to cheer them on at contests, to assist with costumes and props for the musical, or simply to lend an ear to listen and words of encouragement. Susan was always there.
Under Susan’s direction and support, Aly and Olivia blossomed as students in our theatrical plays, marching band, and winter guard. Susan was a major influence on their success. Her presence, both behind the scenes and in the audience, served as a source of solace and motivation, and it served to remind all of us of the significance of family, friendship, and their respective communities.
Susan’s commitment to our music department never wavered, even after her daughters attended and graduated from our institution. The zeal and generosity with which she supported our initiatives continued, and she never failed to make the effort to stop and inquire about how things were progressing, as well as to offer her assistance in any manner that she could. The fact that she never wavered in her dedication to our students and the community of our school was a demonstration of her outstanding character and her profound passion for the musical arts.
Susan’s unflinching support, thoughtfulness, and giving will continue to have an effect that will be felt for many years to come. The contributions that she made to our theatrical shows, color guard team, and music department were genuinely invaluable, and her legacy will continue to be carried on by the countless people whose lives she impacted. At the same time that we are grieving the loss of Susan, let us also use this opportunity to celebrate the wonderful life she had and the significant influence she had on the community of our school. Her memory will be treasured for all time, and her spirit will continue to motivate each and every one of us to strive for greatness, compassion, and kindness in everything that we do.
We would like to express our most sincere sympathies and sadness to Aly, Olivia, and the rest of Susan’s family upon hearing of her passing. The legacy of love and generosity that your mother left behind will continue to live on in the hearts of everyone who had the opportunity of knowing her, and she will be much missed by everyone who had the honor of being able to call her a friend. In conclusion, let us remember Susan as a dazzling illustration of love, kindness, and unflinching support with steadfast dedication. We pray that her memory will continue to motivate each of us to live each day with compassion, generosity, and a commitment to supporting others in their aspirations and passions.
