Former Staff Member Susie Nourse Passes Away

We are sad to share that former OWU staff member Karen Sue ‘Susie’ Nourse passed away unexpectedly Dec. 25 at Grady Memorial Hospital. She was 76.

A Delaware resident for 50 years, Susie worked as a nurse administrator at Grady for many years before joining the OWU Student Health Center, where she worked from 1986 to 2008.

As her family shares: Susie attended St. Mary Catholic Church and was a member of the Women of the Moose in Delaware. She also was an avid reader and enjoyed solving crossword puzzles and spending time with her good friends, the “Golden Girls.”

Calling hours were held Jan. 2. In lieu of flowers, the family suggests contributions in Susie’s memory to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, 501 St. Jude Place, Memphis, TN 38105 or by visiting www.stjude.org.

Please join us in offering our sincere condolences to Susie’s many family and friends, including her daughter, Dr. Kelly Wesp ’92.
