Susan B. Lloyd

Susan B. Lloyd, 65, of Long Plain Road passed away peacefully on her favorite holiday, Thanksgiving, November 24, 2022 with her loving daughters, their spouses and sisters by her side.  She was born in Port Chester, NY on November 5, 1957, the daughter of Jack and Ann (Knowlton) Lloyd.  Susan attended local schools in Connecticut and was a graduate of Housatonic Valley Regional High School, Class of 1975.  She continued her education, starting at Eastern Connecticut State College, then received her Associate’s Degree from Greenfield Community College in Early Childhood Development. 
Susan was an Infant and Toddler Teacher at Northfield Mount Herman for over twenty five years until her retirement. She loved all her children over the years and would even attend some of their graduations.  She also worked at Mims Market in Northfield, MA for many years.  She loved visiting and chatting with all the locals and could make a really good sandwich. 
Susan enjoyed putting together really difficult puzzles, reading a really good book, watching Law & Order,  the annual family trips to Cape Cod and sitting on her favorite beach, Head of The Meadow.  She enjoyed a really good meal surrounded by good company or go for a nice walk.  Most of all, Susan’s favorite thing to do was to spend time with her friends and family, especially her grandbabies. 
Among her survivors, Susan leaves her two beloved daughters, Kate Poole and her husband Doug and Mary Shanafelt and her husband Tyler, all of Hatfield; four grandchildren who were her greatest joy in her life, Olivia and Jackson Poole and Fallon and Palmer Shanafelt; a sister, Donna Stoetzner and her husband Eric of Falls Village, CT; two brothers, Jeffrey Lloyd of Lakeville, CT and William Lloyd of Salisbury, CT; a sister in law, Susan Lloyd of Hightstown New Jersey; her uncle, William Knowlton of Liverpool, NY; five nieces, Sarah, Molly, Abby, Caroline and Brierley Lloyd; and her dearest friends, Celeste Shannon, Kim Farmer and Danielle Swords.  
Besides her parents, Susan was predeceased by a brother, Steven Lloyd and a sister, Jane Lloyd. 
Calling hours will be held Saturday December 10, 2022 from 10am to 12noon at the Kostanski Funeral Home, 220 Federal Street, Greenfield.  A celebration of life to immediately follow at Hawks and Reed, 289 Main Street, Greenfield.
