Susan Allen Hart was born in Brownsville, TN to Lida Thomas Hart and Roger Marshall Hart on September 27, 1935. Being an only child, she was adored by her parents and by her “Papa” who introduced her to church at an early age.

She attended school in Brownsville graduating from Haywood High School after being crowned, Miss Brownsville. She attended Murray State University where she met the love of her life, Jerry Foster. They were married on October 8, 1955 and were married 58 years until his death in 2013. Susan was a loving wife, mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother. Before her health failed, she could be found at all the many activities and sporting events of her grandchildren who lovingly called her Sue-Sue. Susan was a member of Zion Baptist Church, and she loved and prayed for her friends even when she could not attend. She is survived by her two daughters, Betsy Foster and Nancy Weddington (Will Allen); five grandchildren, Kelly Young (Mike), Will Weddington, Jr. (Catherine), Thomas Weddington (Chanel), Ryan Weddington, and Cameron Weddington (Audrey) and 7 great-grandchildren; Ainsley, Addison, Katie, and Caleb Young; Emery, Selah, and Brecken Weddington.
