She was predeceased by her parents, Francois Grenier and Jeannette Grenier (Coulombe). Suzanne, in her earlier years in Vermont, worked for the Barre Learning Center. She helped many Canadians achieve the goal of earning their GED’s. She was passionate about helping her community. For many years she volunteered at the Canadian Club and their Women’s Auxiliary. This led to her working with her brother, Pierre Grenier with managing all of the events the Club held. As time went on, she became a bartender at the Canadian Club and worked there until her retirement. Over the years, many members of the community called her “friend”, as she has always given more of herself than was asked for.

She leaves behind daughters, Janet Munoz and her husband Jesse of San Antonio, TX; and Lisa Shover and her husband Jim of Panama City, FL.
