Obituary for Suzanne Burke (Gladu)
In
loving memory
of
Suzanne Burke (nee Gladu)
73 years.
Passed away peacefully from lung cancer on Tuesday, August 25th, 2020 at Health Sciences North.
Beloved wife of 53 years to Wayne Burke. Loving and devoted mother of Barbara (husband Jim
Radey) and Ian predeceased. Much loved Grandma of Bennett Radey who was the light of her life in recent years. Predeceased by her parents Lucien and Cecile Gladu (nee Lavallee). She will be sadly missed by her loving sister Gaetanne Gladu (husband Austin Lane). Loving aunt, great aunt, and great great aunt to many wonderful nieces and nephews, especially to Lucy St. Amant (husband Henry). Her love of adventure and quirky sense of humour will be sadly missed by many special friends.
Her favourite place was the outdoors where she loved camping, canoe trips with friends, fishing and hiking. She always made sure to take the time to delight in the scent and unique beauty of every flower. Always creative, she enjoyed many crafts including quilting, knitting, embroidery and sewing. Most recently she’d taken on the challenge of painting and quickly discovered a natural talent.
At Suzanne’s request there will be no visitation or service. A celebration of her life will be held at a later date. Cremation at the Park Lawn Crematorium. Donations to the Northern Cancer Research Foundation or NEO KIDS – Children’s Treatment Centre would be appreciated by the family. Arrangements entrusted to the Jackson & Barnard Funeral Home.
