Abingdon, Va. 

Susan Hamel Terry, age 72, passed away on Tuesday, September 1, 2020 at Grace Healthcare. She graduated from the University of Virginia with a degree in nursing. Susan spent her career as a nurse working in hospitals and later in smaller practices due to health challenges. She was very social and fun loving, and enjoyed meeting other people. In her quiet time, Susan enjoyed sewing and crafting. When her health prevented her from attending church, she enjoyed the services that local churches would hold in her care facility. Susan will be remembered for her energy and the laughter that surrounded her.

She is survived by her sons Craig Terry and wife Chelsea of Harpers Ferry, W.Va. and John David Terry of Abingdon; sisters Sandy Joyce of Hurricane, W.Va. and Sally Epton of Fla.; and brother William J. Hamel, Jr. of Knoxville, Tenn.
