Obituary of Susan M. Parker

Miss Susan M. Parker, 64, of Orchard Street, Canajoharie, NY passed away at home on January 4, 2025.

Sue was born in Amsterdam, NY on February 2, 1960, the daughter of the late William H. and Mary Whalen Parker.

In 1978 she graduated from Canajoharie High School, where she was a member of the yearbook staff and National Honor Society.

Sue was a communicant of the former St. Peter and Paul's Catholic Church and, most recently, of Our Lady of Hope in Fort Plain, NY.

She was predeceased in death by her brother Gary W. Parker, on March 15, 1993, sister Sandra Parker on August 14, 2016, and both her parents.

The survivors include two brothers, Michael Parker and Randall Parker, as well as aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews, and cousins.

She will always be remembered for her positive attitude, determination, ability to see the best in things, and crafting skills. She had a keen sense of the weather, oddly, we believe, due her birthday being on Ground Hog Day. Whether it was sitting on the front porch chatting about her family, or watching the game show network, she was always quick with the details only she could remember.

A Mass of Christian Burial will take place in the spring, and she will be buried at St. Peter and Paul's Cemetery.

Donations may be made in Sue's memory to Shriners Children's Hospital, 516 Carew St, Springfield, MA 01104, or the Canajoharie Vol. Fire Dept, PO Box 28, Canajoharie, NY 13317.
