In her mom's social media obituary, Susan wrote that she had gotten word that the centenarian's health had taken a turn for the worse three weeks prior. She was "eternally grateful to God and her wonderful hospice nurses" that she could tell Jeanette in person how much she loved her. On her mother's advanced age, she said:

"I've always mentioned how spunky my mom was — I'm sure that determination really helped her to reach 104!"
