Susan (Susie) Blane Harvick
Susie B. Harvick was born to Mary Alice Palmer and Robert Ernest Grubb on January 6, 1961, in St. Louis, Missouri, and was given the name Robin Dale Palmer. She was adopted at two weeks of age by Frederica and Donald Harvick of Wood River, Illinois, and was renamed Susan Blane Harvick. She died on Tuesday, December 13th, 2005, of ovarian cancer at her home in Pontoon Beach, and was buried in Woodland Hill Cemetery in East Alton.
Susie graduated from Roxana High School and earned a bachelor's degree in communications from Eastern Illinois University in Charleston. She taught home-bound students until she joined the faculty of Coolidge Middle School in Granite City, IL, where she was a dedicated teacher of seventh-grade English and speech. She coached the girls' basketball team for nine years, and continued to teach until three weeks before her death.
She was twice nominated for and included in Who's Who Among American Teachers; nominations must come from former students who are included in Who's Who Among American College and University Students. She was also a member of the International Thespian Society.
She loved camping and river-rafting with her teacher-friends and with her birthmother and brothers, and travelled to Boulder frequently to explore Colorado and Utah, and to accompany her birthmother to Ghost Ranch. She was passionate about cruises, and organized one for a party of thirteen family members in September of 2005, less than three months before she died.
Among her survivors are her life partner, Tammy Bullock of Pontoon Beach; her birth parents, Mary Palmer Redenius of Boulder, Colorado, and Robert E. Grubb of Monterey, Tennessee; their respective spouses, Richard Redenius and Nancy Grubb; her half-brothers Jon, Tom, Andrew and Brendan Redenius; her step-sister Irene Perry; her adoptive mother, Frederica Harvick; and her step-grandson Joshua Donohue.
