Susan Lee Roberts-McGlade
Born August 1, 1953 in Lima Ohio to Tom and Charlotte Roberts.
She is survived by her husband, Eric McGlade, her daughter, Caitlin Roberts McGlade, her parents, Tom and
Charlotte Roberts, her sister and her husband, Dave and Becky (Roberts) Carr, her sister-in-law and
husband, George and Jana (McGlade) Basham and two nephews, Todd Carr and Eric Basham, and three nieces,
Alison (Carr) Crowe, Melanie (Carr) Orzechowski and Elizabeth Basham.
Her great passions in life were her family, her great love for local history, her faith and her sense of
fairness and justice for others. She was a certified historical interpreter and educator working for the
Montgomery County Historical Society and Carillon Historical Park in Dayton, Ohio and the Metroparks and
the Wolcott House Museum in Lucas County. She also saw her life as a “pastor’s wife” in the United
Methodist Church as a responsibility, if not always a blessing. She was, undoubtedly, the great love of
her husband’s life and her daughter was her greatest source of pride and delight.
