Suzanne Holton

December 28, 1950 — March 10, 2026

In loving memory of Suzanne Holton, who graced this world with her presence from December 28, 1950, until March 10, 2026. Born in Syracuse, New York, Suzanne was a beacon of warmth, kindness, and determination. She passed away suddenly after a brief illness, leaving behind a legacy that will be cherished by all who knew her. Suzanne was the beloved daughter of the late Richard and Reta Spaulding, and she is now reunited with them and her niece, Carrie Spaulding, in eternal peace. She is survived by her loving daughter, Kimberly DaSilva, and son-in-law, Gary, along with her treasured grandchildren, Brooklynn and Maddix DaSilva, who were the light of her life. Her brother, Rick Spaulding, and his wife Wendy, along with her niece Jennifer Tam and her husband Alex, and sister Judy Davis, also carry forward Suzanne’s memory, keeping her spirit alive in their hearts. A proud graduate of Fayetteville Manlius High School in 1968, Suzanne showed immense dedication and perseverance as she raised her daughter Kimberly while pursuing higher education. In 1993, she earned her Bachelor of Science Degree in Computer Science from SUNY Empire State College, a milestone that marked the beginning of an illustrious career as an IT Professional. Suzanne’s expertise and work ethic led her to contribute significantly to renowned corporations including IBM, MONY Life, Purina, Mastercard, and Centene Corporation, until her well-deserved retirement in 2021. Suzanne’s zeal for life extended beyond her professional achievements. She was an active member and eventual President of the WINS Investment Group, where her talent for investing and love for collaboration flourished. An avid golfer, Suzanne’s skill on the greens was unmatched, with memorable moments such as her Eagle on a Par 5 at Bethpage. Her passion for cycling took her on a remarkable journey around the perimeter of Ireland, a testament to her adventurous spirit. Travel was another of Suzanne’s great loves, and she explored the world with enthusiasm, from the scenic landscapes of Europe to the vibrant cultures of the Caribbean. Yet, her greatest joy was found in time spent with her family. Her visits with Kim, Brooklynn, and Maddix were filled with joy and excitement—whether attending Broadway shows, enjoying the beaches of New York, or cheering at her grandchildren's events. Suzanne had an infectious personality, often the heart and soul of any gathering. Her generosity and compassion were evident in her readiness to help anyone in need, and her pride in her family and accomplishments was unwavering.
