It is with heavy hearts that we announce the sudden passing of our Mother, Wife, Granny, Aunt and Friend ...
Susan Mae (Milne) Hill on June 7, 2021 at the age of 79.
Susan was born in Vancouver on March 12, 1942 and has resided in the Delta / Surrey area for the majority of her life. Susan married her true love, Russell in 1962 and together they built a beautiful life with 6 children, 13 grandchildren and 2 great grandchildren. She was a devout parishioner of initially Immaculate Conception Parish in Delta and finally, at St. Bernadette’s Parish in Surrey. Susan spent time as a member of the Catholic Women’s League and enjoyed reading, gardening and her numerous fur babies over the years; but her greatest love was her family.
Susan is survived by her husband – Russell of 59 years; her 6 children – Susan, Leslie, Russell, Scott, Sheila and John; her 13 grandchildren – Samantha, Nicole, Megan, Brandon, Michael, Taylor, Tanner, Jessica, Reighan, Jordan, Kaitlin, Matthew and Colton; her 1 great grandchild – Quinton (James is predeceased); her sisters – Bobbie and Leslie (Sharon is predeceased) and her brother – Sonny; along with numerous other relatives and friends. Susan leaves a legacy of love for us all!

“Those we love don’t go away, they walk beside us every day, unseen, unheard, but always near, still loved, still missed and very dear.”
Rest in Peace, Mom xoxo
A wife, a mother, a grandma too,
This is the legacy we have from you.
You taught us love and how to fight,
You gave us strength, you gave us might.
A stronger person would be hard to find,
And in your heart, you were always kind.
You fought for us all in one way or another,
Not just as a wife not just as a mother.
For all of us you gave your best,
Now the time has come for you to rest.
So go in peace, you’ve earned your sleep,
Your love in our hearts, we’ll eternally keep
