Susan Melody Dunavan

BURLEY – Susan Melody Dunavan, a 74-year-old resident of Burley, passed away Saturday, February 22, 2025, at her home in Burley.

Susan was born on October 9, 1950, in Butte, Montana, to Melvin and Caroll (Scollard) Carman.

Susan had a smile that lit up the room anytime she walked in and had a beautiful, positive soul. She had a passion for crafting and spent many hours creating beautiful pieces of art. She was a devoted mother and grandmother, always putting her family first.

It was Susan’s final wishes to be cremated and have her ashes spread across Seaside, Oregon or Kaui, Hawaii. She didn’t want a funeral or memorial service just a party to celebrate her life. She will be deeply missed by all who knew her.

Cremation arrangements have been entrusted to the care of Rasmussen-Wilson Funeral Home of Burley.
