Obituary

​Susan Renee Farley, 68, of Ocala, Florida, passed away peacefully on Thursday, October 30, 2025.
​Susan was born on July 29, 1957, in Jerseyville, Illinois, to George and Shirley Neikirk. For all who knew her, Susan will be remembered for her bright, beautiful smile and infectious laughter that could light up any room. She was a dedicated mother, doting grandmother, and a faithful member of her church community.
​Susan's greatest joy was her family, particularly her two sons, whom she raised with immense love and dedication. Her hands were rarely still; she poured her love into every stitch of her knitted blankets and beanies, and every bite of her legendary chocolate chip cookies. She lived by the principle of helping others before herself, Susan was well-known for her infamous "Mary Poppins bag"—she was always prepared with anything a person might need.
​Her passions included reading, baking, and spending quality time with her grandchildren and family. Susan's commitment to her faith was central to her life, finding great comfort and community at The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
​Susan is survived by her loving sons and daughters-in-law's: Kevin and Samantha Farley and Steven and Amanda Farley. She was a cherished "Nanny" to her grandchildren, Oliver and Penelope Farley. She also leaves behind her devoted sister and brother-in-law, Dianna and Joseph Ridenour; her nieces and their spouses, Stephanie and David Johnson and Megan and Shaun Hennessey; and her great-nieces and nephews, Bayleigh and Zander Johnson and Damon and Lilly Hennessey.
​Susan was preceded in death by her parents, George and Shirley Neikirk.
