Susan W. Drake Obituary
We are sad to announce that, on April 18, 2026 we had to say goodbye to Susan W. Drake of Newburgh, New York. Leave a sympathy message to the family in the guestbook on this memorial page of Susan W. Drake to show support.
In the soft embrace of remembrance, we recall the profound impact Susan had on those she encountered along her journey. Though Susan may have slipped beyond the veil of mortality, her essence lingers like a faint fragrance in the air, a lingering reminder of the beauty and complexity of the human experience.
She was predeceased by: her grandmother Susan Whitford Drake; and her parents, Louise Miller Howland and Rockwell Drake. She is survived by: her former spouses, Joseph Dubois Lipscomb and Thomas Norton Trower; her children, Joseph Slaton Lipscomb (Rachel) and Evelyn Rockwell Lipscomb Berkley (Michael); her brother John Howland Drake (Dale); and her grandchildren, Dustin Miller Berkley and Hazel Drake Berkley.
In lieu of flowers, contributions to the Atlanta Speech School in Atlanta, Georgia, or to the Yosemite Conservancy are welcomed.
