Zsuzsanna (Susan) Szekely passed away with family by her side at Lakeridge Health Oshawa on Jan. 25 at age 36.
Loving daughter of Vasile (Les) and Erzsebet (Elizabeth) Szekely and sister to Reka Szekely. Beloved granddaughter of Katalin Hindrich and predeceased by grandparents Istvan Hindrich and Sara and Gyorgy Szekely.
She will be missed by her friends, extended family, her co-workers at Apotex Inc. and her beloved puppy Teddy.
Susan was born in Romania and moved to Canada with her family in 1987. She grew up in Ajax attending Archbishop Denis O’Connor Catholic High School before earning a Bachelor of Arts degree in International Economics and Finance from Ryerson University. Susan was proud to earn the certified professional accountant (CPA) designation in 2018.
In recent months she fought a fierce battle against cancer and amazed everyone around her with her strength of spirit and positive outlook.
The family will receive friends at Acccettone Funeral Home, 384 Finley Ave. in Ajax, on Friday Feb. 1 from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. and on Saturday Feb. 2 from 11 a.m. to noon. A celebration of life will be held on Feb. 2 at noon at Accettone Funeral Home.
She was a bright star that easily made friends wherever she went and she lived a life full of light and love. Susan packed a lifetime of experiences into her days, travelling and exploring the world. She encouraged everyone she met to find their own adventures and live their best lives.
Those wishing may make a memorial donation to the RS McLaughlin Durham Regional Cancer Centre via the Lakeridge Health Foundation.
Her loss is immeasurable and we will hold her in our hearts forever.
