SUSAN CATHERINE DORAN, 57, of
Briarwood and Queen of Peace parish,
passed away unexpectedly in the early
morning hours of March 17, 2022. Born
on Nov, 7, 1964, Susan, the first child of
Anne (Boyle) Doran and the late John
Doran, Sr., was the best older sister to
Stephanie Finocchio and John Doran,
Jr. and their spouses, Chris Finocchio,
Jr. and Amanda Doran. She was the
favorite aunt of Chris James Finocchio
III, Nicole Finocchio, David Finocchio,
Veronica Finocchio, Sara Doran,
and Johnny Doran, beloved niece of
the late Mary Graham and cousin of
Maureen Palumbo, Catherine Graham
Robinson, the late John Graham, and
Regina Raicovi. Unofficially, Susan was
the adored daughter of the late William
and Margaret Morris, sister of Bernadette,
Gwendolyn, Margaret, James, and
Edmund, and aunt of JJ, Chippy, Matthew,
John, Declan, Samantha, Conor, Bridget,
Edmund Jr., Audrey, and Andrew. Raised
in Ridgewood, Queens, Susan graduated
from Our Lady of the Miraculous Medal
Grammar School, Christ the King High
School, and Queens College with a Bachelor
of Arts in English. She excelled in
her career of children’s book production;
a connoisseur of end papers, bindings,
boards, and fonts. She worked for several
publishing houses, most recently at
MacMillan. Susan had the same job for
more than 30 years, but as her colleagues
in the publishing industry can relate, her
companies kept getting bought and sold.
A fantastic chef, “Sue Babe” admired
Martha Stewart (even after prison). Her
family and friends will miss her elaborate
and delicious Martha-inspired holiday
dishes, most especially her famous
guacamole! She was an adventurous
world traveler, having visited nearly
every continent. Some of her exciting
destinations were the Great Pyramids
of Giza and six of the Seven Wonders of
the World: The Great Wall of China, the
Taj Mahal, the Colosseum, Machu Picchu,
Petra, and Chichen Itza. Sue Babe was a
fan of Princess Diana and the British
Monarchy. She was unsure of how she
felt about Camilla as Queen, but was
Susan Catherine Doran
willing to give her a chance. Her faith
was the foundation of her life and she lectored
for more than 30 years at both Our
Lady of the Miraculous Medal and Queen
of Peace parishes. A wake was schedueld
for Tuesday, March 22, at Hess Miller Funeral
Home. A Mass of Christian Burial
was scheduled to be held Wednesday,
March 23, at Our Lady of the Miraculous
Medal. In lieu of flowers - just kidding,
Sue Babe loved flowers and understood
an essential part of any Irish wake was
the judging of the flowers, so please feel
free to send to Hess-Miller Funeral Home.
Words cannot express the hole left in our
hearts by the loss of Susan – a genuinely
kind, extraordinarily selfless, and truly
generous person.
