Passed away peacefully on Friday, September 20, 2013 at the age of 56 years. Beloved wife of Michael Keller of Rohnert Park. Loving mother of Ryan Estes (Cherie), Jenna Estes-Hennessy (Daniel), and Jessica Keller all of Rohnert Park. Cherished "Nonni" to Cash Carlo Hennessy also of Rohnert Park. Dear daughter of Gloria Martinez of Petaluma and the late Carlo Salani. Adored sister of Rick Salani (Nick & Nate) of Rohnert Park and Mark Salani of AZ.
Susan's love and passion were her children and her grandson. She was happiest with her family and friends, laughing and enjoying life. Susan would always say, Ryan, Jenna and Cash were her greatest blessings and her hope was the crazy, fun and laughter that filled the family home would last through generations. She was so in love with Michael, he would always make her laugh and she would say he was "just plain crazy'. Susan adored Mike in their few short years together and she knew he was her partner for life. Mike was truly Susan's hero, and those who knew them would agree. Mike never left her side and Susan would always tell Mike; "just wait for the next 30 years!!"
Susan's crazy WAB SISTERS; thank you for over 27 years of love, support and laughter.
And to Susan's extended "children, family and friends"; she loved each and every one of you. Susan would always say, it is because of each of you that she is a better woman, mother, wife, Nonni, sister and friend. I love you.
