We are saddened by
the loss of our dear sister Susan Schriver. She passed away peacefully
in her sleep August 20,2020 at the age of 58

She was a beautiful
soul and will be deeply missed by her siblings Trevis (Dianne)
Schriver of Nackawic, NB, Anna Parlee of Fredericton, NB and
Richard (Holly) Schriver of Douglas, NB plus her nieces and nephews,
cousins and many others.
Susan grew up in
Maugerville, New Brunswick. The daughter of of Florence
(Savage) and William (Bill) Schriver (deceased) and her younger
brother Josh (deceased) who she was very close to as a
child.
Though her
education and work journey Sue lived in a variety of places including
Ontario,Kentucky, Maine and Florida. She loved to travel and always
was planning her next adventure and pouring over her maps to see where
next she would be heading.
Susan received a
Doctorate of Philosophy, School of Christian Education and Leadership
at Southern Baptist Theological seminary in Louisville,Ky in
2000. Her dissertation was on The Impact of a Ceremonial Rite of
Blessing upon Family Relationships. While studying for her PHD she was
included in the Who’s Who among students in American
universities and colleges. Her mother was particularly proud of
Susan’s academic
accomplishments.
In recent years
Susan had worked with autistic children in the school system where her
education experience allowed her to make differences in so many
lives.
She loved God, her
family, and the simple things in life, like clouds, rocks, seashells,
and the ocean. She saw Gods handiwork in the clouds and her encounters
with all Gods creatures. She like crafting and flowers and seeing the
eagles flying over the St John River. She truly appreciated
God’s creations and found beauty in
everything.
She loved people
and like her mother had a giving heart and was a faithful friend and
confidant to many.
She was a beautiful
soul and will be deeply missed by her nieces and nephews, cousins, and
many others and by her best buddy Chance dog who loved her
so.
The immediate
family will be having a private funeral (due to Covid restrictions) on

knowing that she is in the arms of her Saviour and singing with the
angels!
