A Sad Community Milestone

A Message from Rev. Liz

Dear First U Lou,

I write with the sad news of Susan Wilburn’s death in the early morning of Sunday, May 3. She passed at Treyton Oaks after a couple of weeks in nursing care.

Susan was a spirited woman who will be greatly missed. At age 98, she was our oldest member. She was at least the third generation in her family to belong to the First U community.Susan served on the Board, with Women’s Alliance, and in other leadership positions.
An oral history interview from 2016 is available through the Kentucky Historical Society. She shares many First U memories there.

Susan’s obituary has not yet been published. Likewise, her family is going to wait a while to hold her service. We will share details when the time comes.

If you would like pastoral support around this loss, you can choose a time to meet with me via my scheduling page. You can also reach me via email.

We hold all who cared about Susan in our hearts, minds, and prayers.

With peace,
Liz
