Susan Hase, 84, of Anna, Illinois passed peacefully from the hands of her family into the hands of her Father on December 16, 2023, at Saint Francis Medical Center in Cape Girardeau.
Laura "Susan" Penninger was born October 17, 1939 in Anna, Illinois to Clarence and Lois (Boyd) Penninger. She graduated from Anna-Jonesboro Community High School in 1957 and married Richard Hase later that year. They were married nearly 54 years before his passing in 2011.
Susan and Richard owned Hase Pharmacy in downtown Anna for many years, an accomplishment of which she was very proud. Susan was passionate about the Girl Scouts of America, serving as a troop leader while her girls were growing up, and in various roles before receiving recognition for forty years of service. She was a faithful member of Mount Moriah Lutheran Church and a lifetime member of the Friends of Stinson.
Susan loved dancing, singing, reading, cruising, shopping, going out to eat, and, especially, socializing. She never met a stranger and had a remarkable way of making friends and touching lives everywhere she went, whether on a bench at the mall or in recent months at Chateau Girardeau.
Susan is survived by her four daughters, Sally (Doug) LeFevre of Anna, Stephanie (John) VanDaele of Phoenix, AZ., Cindy (Dave) Maaske of Yorkville, IL., and Laura Bussey (Eric McCarter) of Anna; ten grandchildren; three great-grandchildren, extended family and many beloved friends. Susan was preceded in death by her parents, her husband, and her brother, C.E. Penninger.
