BLYTHE, Susan Marie

Susan Marie Blythe (born L’Oiseau), 69, of Ottawa, Ontario, passed away on December 25, 2023.  She died, after a short illness, peacefully, pain-free and surrounded by the love of family and friends.

Sweet lass by the sea; her soul a part of its deep melody. She weathered storms with strength and grace. Like the ocean, her heart knew boundless depths. Her laughter echoes like waves on the shore.

A celebration of life service will be held at 2:00 pm, Saturday, January 27, 2024, at Grace Presbyterian Church, 1220 Old 10th Line Road, Orleans.  Reverend Laurelle Callaghan of Queenswood United Church will officiate.  Funeral arrangements are being handled by the Funeral Cooperative of Ottawa.  The service will be live-streamed https://www.graceorleans.ca

Susan was born in Dartmouth, Nova Scotia on January 19, 1954.  She graduated from Graham Creighton High School, where she made many life-long friends, and went on to receive diplomas in administration, accounting and event management.

Susan was married to Stanley Blythe on October 12, 1974; they were married for 49 years.

Susan worked many years in administration and accounting, and ran her own company for the latter.  She enjoyed sewing and knitting, but her passion was caring for her family, especially her children, nieces and nephews.
