Tribute
It is with great sadness that we share the news of the sudden passing of Susan Janet Davidson on July 19, 2024. This bright light left us quickly and painlessly, with her children at her side.
Mom was born on October 20,1942 in Vancouver, BC, to Winnifred Winona Wheat (Wink) and Robert Watson.
Mom grew up in North Vancouver, was a Delbrook High graduate and attained a Degree in Education from UBC.
In 1966, Susan married Alex Biddlecombe, whom she met at Delbrook High School. They had three children, Michael, Robbie and Erin.
Susan had a zest for life and traveled the world: Australia, New Zealand, England, Greece, Scotland, Malaysia, and Japan, but eventually found her home on Salt Spring Island.
Once on Salt Spring, Mom worked at West of the Moon, and found her calling teaching at Tree Frog Daycare.
Many connections were formed, and Mom had the good fortune of getting to know several generations of Salt Springers.
Recently predeceased by her beloved Jerry (Gerald-Me-Darling), her passing marks the end of an amazing journey filled with laughter and love.
Susan was mother to Erin, Robbie, and Michael, grandmother to Alex and Damien, and grateful other-mother to Kelly1 and Richard, Kelly2 and Scott, as well as Mia and Carolyn.
She is survived by her brother Bob and his wife Dale, and her cousin Artie. She is also survived by her dear friend and father of her children, Alex, and his wife, Diane. Susan is also predeceased by her second husband, David Brynn-Jones.
Susan will be dearly missed by her precious Ferry Queens: Mary, Judith, Norma, and Lois; all the delightful Salt Spring daughters and son who she collected and cherished along the way: Andrea and Tara, Meghan, Gail, Shellaine, and Martin; and all of the many friends too numerous to mention here.
Her family and friends filled her life with joy and happiness, courage and support, right to the very end.
Our family would like to express a heartfelt thank you to Sandi and the folks at Heritage Place as well as all the staff at Lady Minto that took such great care of her.
Arrangements for a gathering to exchange memories, stories, and her favourite one-liners is to be held on her birthday, at 1pm on October 20th, at Bullock Lake Farm.
Please join us to celebrate this joyful, effervescent, exuberant, and absolutely unconditionally loving individual.
