September 15, 2009
Today was the day my beautiful sister in law became an angel after losing her battle with pancreatic cancer. She is loved and will be missed by us all. Please say a prayer for my brother and her sons that they can endure this massive loss in their lives. Susan truly was an angel when she was among us and now above us.
GIUFFRE Susan Jayne October 16, 1956 - September 15, 2009 With great sadness we announce the passing of Susan Jayne Giuffre on September 15, 2009. Susan was born October 16, 1956 in Calgary, Alberta. She worked as a nurse for over 28 years, commencing her career in pediatric care in Calgary and then specializing in neonatal intensive care at the University Hospital in Edmonton and then at the Children's Hospital in Vancouver. Susan is truly one of God's angels and the many nurses and doctors that she worked with would attest to her love and commitment to her craft and the many children and infants that she cared for. Susan was an accomplished runner, participating in many marathons and ultra marathons and loved to run and walk with her friends and family and her two dogs throughout the north shore mountains. Her smile was infectious and her zest for life, positive attitude, vivacity and generosity were boundless; as was the love she shared with those closest to her. Susan will be dearly missed and lovingly remembered by her husband, Joseph and two sons Jason and Michael, her sister, Karen (Hamilton) and by her extended family and many friends. Prayers will be held on Thursday, September 24 from 7:00 to 7:30 PM and a funeral mass will be held on Friday, September 25 at 11 AM at St. Pius Church, 1150 Mt. Seymour Pkwy, North Vancouver. A brief reception will follow the mass from 12:30 to 2:30 PM. Location details to be posted at St. Pius Church. In lieu of flowers, Susan would appreciate donations to the Children's Hospital Foundation.
