Susan Parker, beloved wife, mother, grandmother, and sister departed from this life to her eternal home on August 25, 2024. Susan was born in Syracuse, New York to Edward and Theda Martin.

Susan is survived by her husband, Michael, of 55 years, a son Cameron and his wife Carey Wilson Parker, their children, Sydney, Adam, Philip, and Meredith; a daughter Courtney and her husband Brad Williams, their children Olivia, Ethan, Samuel, and Audrey. She is also survived by Michael's mother, Christine 'Oma' Parker, age 100, for whom she was care-giver for the past 5 years. Surviving siblings include Dr. Earl Martin of Georgia, Mrs. Annette Spaeth of Texas, Mr. Carl Martin of Texas, and Mrs. Dorothy Mady of North Carolina.
Over the course of her professional life, besides working alongside her husband as a minister's wife, Susan worked as an administrative assistant in a law firm, in two real estate agencies, and as executive secretary to the Senior Minister at Mount Washington Presbyterian Church in Cincinnati.
A Celebration of Life is scheduled for Sunday, September 15, 2024 at Glen Este Church of Christ, 937 Cincinnati-Batavia Pike, Cincinnati, OH 45245. The church is located behind the Meijer store in Eastgate. Greetings and visitation at 2:00 pm with service at 3:00 pm. Memorial contributions can be made to GECOC Mission Fund (Glen Este Church of Christ). Susan donated her body to be used for medical research to the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine.
Susan was an accomplished musician who derived the greatest joy in teaching her grandchildren to play the piano, accompanying family members and others in singing and playing instruments in church, and mentoring all she could in the Christian faith. She enjoyed preparing family meals, customizing birthday dinners, and tending her flower gardens. Susan also painted several paintings for her home. Most of all, Susan would want to be remembered for her deepest desire to be a faithful servant to Jesus Christ.
