Gloria "Suzi" Susan Mcnorton

‘It pains me to admit it, but apparently I have passed away. I was born, I blinked, and it was over. I’ll leave you with this – please don’t cry because I’m gone; instead, be happy that I was here. Or maybe you can cry a little bit, after all, I have passed away’.

Gloria “Suzi” McNorton passed away on Saturday, October 8th 2022 surrounded by her family.

She was a brilliantly funny and generous soul, who was passionate about animals and always had a creative project in the works. She is survived by her sisters – Julie Finnigan and Tracy Fitch; her niece Somer Smith; her nephews Michael Finnigan, Blake Fitch, Brandon Fitch, Ryan Fitch, and LC Smith IV; and her dog, Mo.

Our loved ones include; Peggy, Valeri, Sebrina, Raye Lynn and Shannon. We bow our heads as we acknowledge all the families that have lost loved ones recently to include; Daryl Williams, Gary Blackman, Robert King, Charlie Stropel and Joan Hughes. I wish us all peace as we reflect on their lives and the love that we shared with them and so many others. Happy Thanksgiving to all!

A celebration of life will be held at Tru by Hilton (1775 US Hwy 27 South, Sebring FL) on Tuesday, November 15th from 2-5pm. In lieu of flowers, donations to The Center for Great Apes in Suzi’s name would be greatly appreciated -- www.centerforgreatapes.org .
