Suzie Hilaire

The Hilaire Family of the late Suzie Hilaire wishes to express their sincere gratitude and appreciation for all of the support and prayers as well as the online support and posts that we have received.  Thank you.

Marie Elizabeth Suzie Hilaire, who liked to be called Suzie, was called home at the age of 84 on January 08, 2022 at her house in Queens New York. She was born to the Late Anna & Robert Durand on March 26, 1937 in Port-au-Prince Haiti. She was born into a large happy family, the third child of six children, where the siblings were very close. 

She married in 1966 and immigrated to the United States shortly thereafter to begin a new life for herself. She settled in New York where she started to grow her family. She worked hard at her job at the Eagle Electric Company to support her family and put her 3 children through school and college. She retired at the age of 65 and settled on a quiet life at home where she could enjoy her precious grandchildren. 

Suzie is survived by her children, Riviere Hilaire, Frances Hilaire Toure and Sandra Hilaire. She is also survived by her son-in-law Ibrahim Toure and her grandchildren, Brianna Hilaire, Jaden Hilaire and Aissa Toure. She was the sister to Robert Durand Jr., Immacula Joseph and Georgette Dubois and the aunt to many nieces and nephews. Suzie was devoted to her faith in God and immensely proud of her large family and leaves behind nothing but beautiful memories.
