Susan Kathryn Brooker (Blackard),71, passed away peacefully on Monday, June 30, 2025, after dealing with long time illnesses.
Susan was the daughter of the late Bill and Jean Blackard of Appling, Ga. She is preceded in death by her husband, Don Brooker of New York; and brother, Greg Blackard of Savannah, GA. Susan is survived in death by her brother, David Blackard of Charlotte, NC; sister, Donna Blackard of Memphis TN; and nieces and nephews: Alanna Hilburn of Adairsville, GA, Andrew Blackard of Savannah, Ga, Jeanie Matheson of Savannah, GA, and Benjamin Blackard of Charlotte, NC.
While Susan may have had a quiet demeanor, she had an amazing heart. She lived in Nashville, TN with her husband Don until his passing in 1994. She enjoyed her time helping people as she served as a unit secretary at inpatient hospitals. Even after retirement she would volunteer to drive cancer patients to appointments that needed assistance. She had a love for the arts including music, painting and pottery.
It was Susan's wishes to have no service, so in lieu of flowers the family asks for donations to be made in her memory to the American Cancer Society.
