Susan (Herron) Kozusko, 81 of Indiana, died Thursday, July 11, 2024 at St. Andrews Village. Born in Pittsburgh on April 12, 1943, she was the daughter of the late James and Elizabeth (Mitchell) Herron. She was the wife of Jerry Kozusko, whom she married on June 25, 1966.
Susan attended Bellevue High School, and later graduated from Penn State with a bachelor’s degree in early childhood education. While attending Penn State, she was a member of the Alpha XI Delta Sorority, where she met her husband, Jerry.
Susan was a teacher and excelled with her preschool, Today Care Children’s Center. She taught and loved local children for many years.
She was a consummate hostess, always ready to meet with her “elegant friends” or to host a Penn State tailgate. Susan was very witty and could tell a great story. She enjoyed reading and working on puzzles. Susan loved her time with her grandchildren and always “insisted” that they have a mini-ice cream cone before each meal.
She is survived by her husband of 58 years, Jerry Kozusko, of Indiana; and son: Matthew (Julia) Kozusko of Avon, Colorado. Susan will be missed by her grandchildren: Riley and Hayden Kuhn and Serena and Emory Kozusko; and brother: Jim Herron.
In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her beloved daughter, Anna Kozusko Kuhn, and sister, Judy Herron Brown.
Friends will be received on Sunday, July 14th, from 2:30 until 4:30 PM at Rairigh-Bence Funeral Home & Crematory of Indiana. Her funeral service will immediately follow with Pastor Kathy Mihoerck, officiating.
