She was the daughter of the late William and Ester Prince. She was preceded in death by her husband Ernest L. Roper Jr, three sisters, Waddy, Camella, Doodie, and one brother, Buddy.
She graduated from Hendersonville High School in 1950 and married her high school sweetheart, Ernest L. Roper Jr. After high school, she attended nursing school at Charlotte Memorial Hospital and worked in the medical field for the rest of her career. Susan was known around Hendersonville by her overwhelming beauty, on the outside and, most notably, the inside. She was kind, funny, and a strong woman of the Lord.
Susan greatly enjoyed the town of Hendersonville and activities such as tennis, skiing, gardening, and lunching with her dear friends. She was a servant of the town as she spent her free time volunteering at the Elizabeth House gardens or First Baptist Church of Hendersonville where she was a lifelong member. She was the matriarch of the Roper family hosting holidays that will be held close to the family's hearts as they reflect back on their time with her. The family is forever grateful for the exemplary care she received at Carolina Village during her time there.
