She immigrated to the United States in 1967 and settled in Pasadena, CA where she further pursued her love for music in college. She was active in the church and was one of the charter members of the Evangelical Formosan Church. In May 1971, her eldest sister played match-maker; and Susan flew to the U.S. Virgin Islands to meet Dr. Jack Jeng-Yen Fan who was doing medical training on the islands. The couple fell in love and were married in December 1971 in Pasadena, CA. The couple moved to Chicago, IL where Jack finished his residency. The couple eventually settled in Clayton, NC where Jack started his medical practice. Susan spent much of her time educating primary school students about her homeland of Taiwan by giving presentations at local schools. She also remained an active member of the Raleigh Chinese Christian Church and Evangelical Formosan Church by playing the piano and singing in the choir.
Susan devoted her life to her two children at home so they could succeed in her new found country, America. She wanted nothing less than to glorify God through her words and the way she raised her children. Though her life was often stricken with illness, Susan often used this as a blessing to encourage others who were ill or had sick loved-ones. She constantly gave glory to God in good times and in bad times. Her love for children was always evident every Sunday at church when she gave out candy to every little child she saw. She has touched hundreds of lives in Clayton as well as the Asian American population all over the Southeast and beyond with her sincere integrity, gentle spirit, and her tremendous strength in the Lord.
She is survived by her husband, Jack Fan; son, Billy Fan (wife, Gloria Fan); and daughter, Nancy Fan; brother, Benjamin Lu; sisters, Elizabeth Chen and Ruth Chang.
