Susan passed away from a brain aneurysm while working as an Anchor Woman for CBS in Ohlo. She initially got sick while on an assignment in Qinhuangdao, China. The doctors treating her in China were uncertain of the cause for her illness. So Susan decided to return to the states for treatment. Unfortunately, the source of her illness went undetected and she died about two weeks later. After graduating from Kansas University she worked at the NBC affiliate in Kansas City. Starting as a reporter she worked her way up to weekend anchor before taking the position as the daily anchor for the CBS affiliate in Toledo. A journalism scholarship in her name has been established at Kansas University. Also, the local Chinese government placed a plaque in her name in one of their parks.
