Susan was born in Orange, New Jersey and raised in Maplewood, New Jersey. In 1986, she married Michael Pagano with whom she had one daughter. In 2003, Susan and Michael relocated from New Jersey to Florida, settling in Port Orange. Together, with the family they established a neighborhood favorite eatery, Pagano's Pizzeria. To know Susan, was to love her, and those who loved her will affectionately remember how she effortlessly lit up any room she was in with her vibrant personality, warm heart, and undeniable gift of gab. Susan was a passionate person which led her to adopt many hobbies. She could regularly be seen attending Mass at Our Lady of Hope Catholic Church or going to the beach, though few could deny that her true passion was her love of animals and family.

Susan's memory will be cherished by her loving husband of 28 years, Michael, daughter, Nicole, brother, Stephen Lewis and his wife Violet, sister, Tracy Cabalar and her husband Kevin, brother-in-law Richard Pagano, and sister-in-law, Theresa Cucciniello and her husband Alan. The family requests that memorial donations be made in Susan's name to the American Cancer Society and the Halifax Humane Society.
