Susan “Sue” (Campbell) Hoover, 73, long-time resident of Canton, Pennsylvania, passed away peacefully at home, Saturday morning, February 1, 2020 while surrounded by her loving family.
Susan Elaine was born on September 13, 1946 in Wellsboro, Pennsylvania, she was one of four daughters born to the late Franklin Ransford “Randy” and Winona “Nonie” (Priset) Campbell.
As a young woman, Sue grew up in the Canton area and attended the Canton Jr & Sr. High Schools. She later, along with her sister Kay, became a co-owner of the former Canton Diner. Together they owned and operated Kay and Sue’s Diner on Troy Street, a popular Canton eatery for 17 years until an unfortunate fire caused its closure in 1989. More recently she can be remembered as being a friendly cashier at the Tops Grocery Store in Canton for many years until her retirement.
Susan was a very caring, unselfish person always putting others and especially her family first. Family was what encompassed her life and she will be dearly missed by her devoted husband, children, sisters, grand and great grandchildren.
Her favorite pass-times included; Camping, Bowling (she once bowled a perfect 300) and spending the Winter months in Florida. Sue was a talented homemaker and enjoyed cooking, baking and crafting.
