She was born in 1936 and is preceded in death by her husband Raymond, mothers Esther & Ana Covarrubias, father Gilbert and brothers John, David and a grandson Nathan. She is survived by her sister in law Teresa, her brothers Gilbert (Starr), Roy (Anna), Rey (Cathy),

her daughters MaryEsther (John), Adela, her son Raymond (Lydia) and 10 grandchildren, 3 great grandchildren and numerous nieces and nephews.

Susana was a beloved wife, mother, sister, grandmother, great grandmother and friend. She attended Scottsdale Grammar & graduated from St. Mary’s High School. She was a hard working, charismatic business woman who always made time to help her community. She took great pride in volunteering to help and raise money for those in need at many various charity events and fundraisers, one of which was for LULAC (League of United Latin American Council) where she served as a board member and many of which she was asked to be the Master of Ceremonies. She will be greatly remembered for her beautiful speeches and ability to captivate the crowd with her motivational and passionate messages.

To her family and friends, while we take great pride in all her many other accomplishments, will remember her for her beautiful singing voice. Susana loved to sing and took great joy in singing to her family and friends. She especially loved to sing for her grandbabies and great grandbabies. Susana also drew a crowd around her to hear her captivating stories of historical events and exhilarating tales of the past.

She was truly loved by all and will be greatly missed.
