Obituary for Suzanne Elizabeth Peters

Suzanne Elizabeth Peters
December 7, 1964 – April 28, 2022

It is with great sadness that the family of Suzanne (Suzie) Peters announces her passing on April 28, 2022 at the Dartmouth General Hospital surrounded by family at the age of 57.

Suzie was a loved wife, mother, daughter, sister, aunt, cousin and friend. She is survived by and will be lovingly remembered by husband Kirk Alexander (SHMILY), daughters Nicole and Samantha, sister Patricia (Dave Lynch) Smith, sister-in-law Nadine, nieces Hillary and Emma, and nephew David, and many cousins and extended family and friends. She was predeceased by her parents, Donnie and Elaine (Martin) Stevens, and brother David.

Having grown up in the St. Margaret’s Bay area, Suzie had many fond memories on the water, and in particular back Mason’s Point Road at the Anglican Youth Camp. While she moved to the city, St. Margaret’s Bay and Hubbards was always “down home” and she loved having any opportunity to spend time there.

While Suzie held various jobs over the years, she truly loved her role as a school bus driver. She took great pride in the relationships she formed with the students and her co-workers. She also spent many years working the family fish and chip truck with her father in both Hubbards and Dartmouth.

Any given weekend in the summer you could find Suzie at a race track cheering on her favourite drivers. A really good weekend would involve camping at the race track, bringing together two of her favourite pastimes.

Suzie enjoyed house parties, karaoke and family gatherings. Her laugh was infectious and truly came from the heart. Her smile was genuine, taking the best photos when she wasn’t even trying to. Suzie was not a very religious person, but she was spiritual. She believed in angels and knew one day her brother and parents would be waiting for her. She will be deeply missed by all who knew her.

A celebration of life will be held at 2:00pm on Wednesday, May 11, 2022 at the Ronald A. Walker Funeral Home in Upper Tantallon. Flowers are welcome, or donations may be made in Suzie’s memory to Hope for Wildlife or Make-a-Wish Atlantic.
