Dr Susi Harris

 

9th July 1960 to 14th January 2025

 

Loved and loving daughter of Alison and the late Anthony, mother of Tom and Harry, partner of Daniel, sister of Caroline and Jessica, mother-in-law of Maggy and Cimone, granny of Sami, aunty, colleague and friend.

 

“I know her loss will be felt by a great many people whose lives she touched with her openness and generosity (and her special kind of chaos!). She was a one-of-a-kind woman, who never had any time yet always had time for others, who had a thousand madcap schemes and spinning plates, who raised a loving family and upheld a long and successful career as a doctor.”

Tom, Susi’s son

 

Susi’s farewell will be held at 12 pm on 20th February at The Birchcliffe Centre, Hebden Bridge (you can arrive from 11.30am). Susi’s family will livestream the farewell, you can see it here (but please be aware that the wifi in the building isn’t totally reliable so we’re not sure how well it will work).  Following the ceremony, friends and family are invited to stay for refreshments. Parking is limited at The Birchcliffe Centre so please consider walking or car share. It’s a twelve minute up hill walk from the train station.

Afterwards the Birchcliffe there will be a private family burial.

The celebration of Susi’s life will continue at The Trades Club, where the wake will take place, from 4 pm.

Susi loved colour; please don’t feel you must wear black. A splash of green, her favourite colour, would be a fitting tribute. Family flowers only please, but you are welcome to bring a responsibly foraged leaf, twig or flower from a walk or your garden. Alternatively if you would like to make a donation in Susi’s memory please donate to one of the following charities: Practical Action, Medical Aid For Palestinians and/or The Woman’s Centre in Halifax. There will be a donations box at The Birchcliffe Centre. You can bring cash or a cheque made directly to the charity.
