AUBURN — Suzanne A. Benner, 58, a resident of Lisbon Falls, passed away Tuesday, Feb. 21, at the Hospice House in Auburn, after a long and very courageous battle with a lifelong illness.
She was born Aug. 2, 1958, in Lewiston, the daughter of Norman Cloutier and Theresa (Hamel) Cloutier. She loved the outdoors, gardening, sewing and spending time with her friends, family and grandbabies.
She truly lived by the motto “one day at a time” and never let her illness slow her down. She had a deep faith in God and cherished the relationships she developed with her AA “family” many years ago.
Sue is survived by her mother, Theresa Cloutier; her son, Levi Benner and his wife, Nikki; and her three grandchildren, Levi (Jim), Landon and Oliver.
She was predeceased by her father, Norman; and brothers, Michael and Richard.
