Suzzane Catherine Donahue was born July 21, 1951 in Queens, New York to Joseph & Margaret (Falcis) Gargiulo. She married her husband, Tom, in 1980. They lived in numerous areas before settling in Oakwood. Suzzane retired as an assistant district manager for Farmers Insurance Company, having worked in Huntsville and Bryan. She was an active and faithful member of Calvary Christian Center and especially enjoyed helping in the kitchen. She had a soft spot for any kind of stray animal and took many in, nursing them back to health. Suzzane also loved “mothering” the many friends and acquaintances in her life. Most of all, Suzzane had a heart for serving and doing for others that will not soon be forgotten by all those who knew and loved her.

Suzzane was preceded in death by both of her parents. She is survived by husband, Thomas “Tom” Donahue of Oakwood; son & daughter-in-law, Joseph & Kathy Donahue of Tennessee; sister, Lisa Winters of Iowa and grandchildren, Kaitlan & Colin Donahue.
