Susan passed away at St. Mary's Hospital, in Rochester on November 23, 2014 from a brief battle with cancer. She was 66 years old.
Susan was born on April 10, 1948 to Ronald and Roberta "Bobby" (Zellmer-Short) Taylor, in Mankato, MN. She attended and graduated from Waterville-Elysian High School in 1966. She went on to attend Mankato State University where she studied for two years in the secretarial program.
Susan was united in marriage to Sidney Troutner on May 3, 1969 at the Waterville Lakeside Methodist Church. The couple was blessed with two children.
Susan started her career at Waseca Memorial Hospital as a secretary receptionist. The family later moved to Albert Lea in the mid 1970's. She worked as a secretary for S.L. Johnson Insurance, and has been working for Peterson Chiropractic as a secretary since 1994.
Susan was a member of the Glenville United Methodist Church, where she served on the membership and memorial fund committee, was a church historian, and taught Sunday school for many years. Her favorite past times include talking on the phone with her friends, shopping dates with her sisters, caring for her cats, watching her daughter's cheer team perform, and enjoying a caffeine free coke. She liked to go shoe shopping, walking, time spent with her friends, and she was a big supporter of the local Humane Society. She was a very caring, kind, and outgoing person that always put others before herself. Most of all, she enjoyed the time spent with her family.
She is preceded in death by her parents; mother and father in-law, Sidney (Josie) Troutner; and a sister in-law, Diane Kletschka.
Those left to cherish her memory include her husband of 45 years, Sidney, of Albert Lea; children, Stacy Troutner, of Lees Summit, MO, and Beth Troutner, of St. Clair, MN; siblings, Gary (Linda) Taylor, of Waseca, Patricia (Dean) Kriskovich, of Avon, IN, and Nancy (Bruce) Pittman, of Waterville, MN; sisters in-law, Janet Blom, Darlene Bayer, and Betty Jo Troutner; as well as many other loving nieces, nephews and other relatives. Blessed be her memory.
