Bonham, Texas -- Susan Kathleen Brady Detwiler returned home to the Lord on October 31, 2024. Her lively spirit, her loving manner, and her generosity will be missed by all of us who were so blessed to have had her in our lives. Arrangements are under the direction of Wise Funeral Home, Bonham, TX.

Susan is survived by her sons, Scott Detwiler and wife Christy, Joseph Detwiler and wife Katlin, sisters, Mickey, Denise, Cheryl, grandchildren, Joseph, Abbigale, Alydia, Jackson, and many extended family and dear friends who share her memory and the joy knowing that Susan is in Heaven. She is free from all disease and reunited with her beloved husband, Timmy.

Susan was born while her parents were stationed in Ft. Leavenworth, KS. They moved back to Bonham after John's retirement from the Air Force in 1967. She loved all things horses which led to her being crowned The Quarter-Horse Queen in 1972. She married Tim Detwiler in 1981 and together they raised a hog operation in Wolfe City, TX.

Farm life was a part of Susan and they returned to Bonham in 1996 to raise sheep and goats. They became the largest breeder of Boer goats. They also established Detwiler Salvage Yard and Seed Company while raising their two sons Scott and Joe.

Susan was a devout and dedicated mother and loved shopping with her sisters. Some of her fondest memories were going to the sale barns on Saturdays with her family. She also enjoyed being a vendor at the Trades Days in various area towns. Susan loved her time spent with her grandchildren. She cheered every success, she stressed over their challenges, and she prayed heartfelt prayers for each one.

A celebration of life will be held 2:00 p.m. November 8, 2024 at the chapel of Wise Funeral Home with her dear friend Bob Austin officiating.
