  • Name Susan Elaine POST  [2
    • Susan Elaine Slosson, 75, passed away July 22, 2012 in Olympia, Washington. Susan was born June 19, 1937 in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho to Fred and Martha Post. She grew up in Coeur d'Alene and Spokane, attended Coeur d' Alene High School and graduated from Eastern Washington University. After college, Susan traveled to Seattle, Washington with some of her friends and began working as a typing, short-hand and business-skills teacher. It was there that she met Harry Slosson. On October 21, 1961, Susan and harry wed. For the next fifty-plus-years, Susan joyfully dedicated her life to being a wonderful wife and devoted mother to four daughters, Marie Slosson, Mary (Chuck) Hallett, Ann (Rob) Stratton and Gail Slosson. Her grandchildren, Charles Hallett V, James Hallett, Kendall Stratton and Abel Leyva were some of her life's greatest rewards. Along the way, Susan took mothering to the highest level. There wasn't a craft, sewing, yarn, cooking, gardening, PTA, class-mom or Camp fire project that she wouldn't tackle! Her fondness for shop-hopping & Quilting, or what some folks call "cutting up good fabric and sewing it back together", was well known and her projects for Providence St. Peter Christmas Forest were some of her proudest accomplishments. If one, or all of her girls needed something, Susan took it on. This dedication always extended to friends and acquaintances. From 1989 to 2003, Susan also worked outside the home as an administrative assistant for her son-in-law's accounting firm. Susan and her parents now watch over us from Heaven with smiles, laughter, lots of encouragement, tons of fun stories and plenty of great memories. Susan's husband, daughters, sons-in-law, grandchildren, sisters Nancy (Mike) Smith and Sally (Bill) Barlow and numerous nieces, nephews, cousins & Friends will always think of her with fondest, admiration and love. Following Susan's example, remembrances in her honor should go to something that helps and enriches the lives of others. A Memorial service will be held on Saturday, July 28, 2012 at 2:00 pm at Mills & Mills Funeral Home and Memorial park, 725 Littlerock Road Southwest in Turnwater, WA 98512.
