Susan is survived by her daughter, Theresa Tesno, the father of her children, James Tesno of Montezuma, brother and wife, Deane & Sandy Armour of Montezuma, in-laws Mary & Fred Drakesmith of St. Charles, MO, in addition to nieces, nephews, and the many she loved as if they were her own children and grandchildren. She is also survived by her beloved corgi, Brenin.

Susan was preceded in death by daughter, Katherine Tesno, and sister-in-law, Barbie Tesno.

She was a member of Our Lady of Guadalupe Catholic Church and the Christian Mother's Sodality. Susan earned her place in Heaven during her long social services professional career, including Hospice of Mercer and Darke County, Child Protective Services, the Family Crisis Network. As a Dual Diagnosis Therapist, Susan dedicated herself helping people struggling with addiction and mental health issues live positive lives, and her final role, providing these services for the inmates of Hamilton County.

She was a graduate of Bradford High School and Urbana University. She always believed in the importance of voting, and was proud to be part of The Urbana 34, a sit-in protest after poll workers denied her and others their right to vote.
