Suzanne Almeida Scott, affectionately known as Sue, passed away. September 17, 2023, leaving behind a legacy of love, compassion and indomitable spirit. Born in Chicago, Illinois, Suzanne's life was a testament to her unwavering dedication to those she loved and the causes she believed in. Throughout her life's journey, which took her from Westfield, New Jersey, to Centennial, Colorado, Suzanne's warm and captivating personality left an indelible mark on everyone she met.

Suzanne was a homemaker par excellence, dedicating her life to nurturing her family and making her home a sanctuary of warmth and love. In her leisure time, she reveled in playing golf, swimming and traveling and participating as an active member of her sorority, Delta Gamma, alumni association. One of Sue's happiest moments was when she initiated two granddaughters (Kelly & Kasha) using her Delta Gamma pin. A proud member of the Echo Lake Country Club, in Westfield, New Jersey, Suzanne was also an active volunteer for many years at Children's Specialized Hospital in Mountainside, New Jersey, where she was honored as Volunteer of the Year, a testament to her selflessness and commitment to service.

A devout Episcopal and longtime member of St. Paul's Episcopal Church, Suzanne lived by the words from the Book of Proverbs 31:25, "She is clothed with strength and dignity; she can laugh at the days to come". Her faith guided her through life's highs and lows, instilling in her resilience and optimism that touched everyone around her.

Sue is survived by her loving son, Mark Scott, (Jacki) of Vail, Colorado and Waikoloa, Hawaii and daughter, Janet Patterson of Charleston, South Carolina and is preceded in death by her beloved husband, Richard Scott, and her parents George and Almeida Rohling. Sue is also survived by grandchildren Jessica Sokol (Jake) of Charleston, South Carolina, Christian Patterson of New Jersey and Andrew Patterson of North Carolina as well as Kelly Scott Stone (Taylor) and Katherine "Kasha" Scott (fiancé Casey O'Keefe), both of Denver, Colorado. Sue is also survived by three great grandchildren, Blanche, Hobart and Frances Sokol, and her long term loving and devoted caregiver, Leslie Evans, of Denver.
