Susan Marie Carver

December 30, 1961 ~ May 20, 2022
Susan Marie Carver of Painesville passed on May 20th, surrounded by her 6 children, and her mother. She was born in Painesville, OH on December 30th, 1961, to Helen (Ladico) and John Herbert Carver.
She is remembered for her overly enchanted spirit, her contagious laughter, and lives through the untamable magic she left behind. She loved big family gatherings, playing Scrabble, watching suspenseful movies, and laying in the sunshine. She took note of all the small things that people typically take for granted like the wind in your hair, the smell of a baby, and the crunch of fall leaves under your feet. Her favorite phrases for her children were telling them “I love you to the moon and back” and “I love you so, so big”. Her favorite things in life were babies and her cottage in Canada. She was crafty, always making things from scratch and sold quite a few of her creations at craft shows when she was younger. She could draw and paint, sew and fabricate. She could, in fact, do anything she put her mind to. She was strong, beautiful, and wild as the wind.
Susan is survived by 6 of her 7 children: Jennifer (Dustin) Sample, Daryl Knezevich, Joshua (Amy) Knezevich, Timothy (Jule) Knezevich, Juliana (Endijs) Knezevich and Tiffani Scharrer. She was married twice and is survived by Jeffrey Knezevich and Martin Scharrer. She is also survived by five of her brothers, Allen (Janet), Michael, and Joseph (Tammy) Peine, and Timothy (Pamela) and David (Kelly) Carver, as well as her mother and 11 grandchildren. She was preceded in death by her father, her son, Nicholas Paul Knezevich, and her brother, Dennis Peine.
Visitation will be held Sunday, May 29th, from 2 to 4 pm at the Behm Family Funeral Home, 26 River St., Madison, Ohio.

I regretfully wasn’t able to attend services with the children, I’d like to send my sincere condolences for the loss of your mother and Nana, your daughter. I’m grateful she was my aunt, and when I am able to spark magic in my children’s lives I know that such a gift is only possible in part because she gave me some of her own spark to carry and pass on. I hope your hearts carry on with good memories, especially her laughter
