Her late husband of 40 years, Ivan Ville, and children Brian Ville of Spencerport, NY, Marc Ville (deceased) (Lynne Johnson Ville) of Rochester, NY, and Kathleen Ville of Akron, NY were loved by Sue.
Sue and Ike have 8 grandchildren: Jared Pimm, Olivia (Pimm) Lahey, Jeremy Ville, Joseph Ville, Shawn Glabach, Victoria Pimm, Jennifer Pimm, and Nathan Batzold. They also have two great-grandchildren: Maxwell and Weston Pimm.
Susan delighted in playing bridge, was active in the local antique and yard sale communities, and enjoyed the real estate community as an agent for many years. She was an avid traveler, visiting her favorite locations in Gettysburg, PA, Vermont, and visiting family in Massachusetts and Maryland. Sue always had a good book in her hand, as reading, particularly historical fiction and researching antiques was a great pleasure. Her early career was as a teacher and she worked in multiple schools in Spencerport, Hilton and Brockport. Her family will remember her meticulous needlepoint and quilt pieces, braided rugs, and painting objects, all treasured by her family.
Susan’s kindness and independent personality were felt by her family and many in the local community. The local church, antique community, history and bridge clubs no doubt were the greatest recipients of her time and adoration. She was headstrong, delightfully opinionated, and never afraid to share her wisdom about any topic. Her incredible spirit will continue to touch the generations that knew her, as well as those beyond.
A memorial service will be held at the Adams Basin United Methodist Church (Spencerport, NY) on Saturday July 29th at 11:00 am. Luncheon will be served at Salmon Creek Country Club, 355 Washington St, Spencerport, NY 14559. All are welcome.
In lieu of flowers please consider donating to the American Cancer Society or the Morgan Manning House in Brockport, NY.
