Suzanne Thorpe Bischof, 56, passed away on May 18, 2025, in Tampa, Florida. Born on July 21, 1968, in Tampa, where she lived her entire life, Suzanne was a beacon of joy and light to everyone who knew her.

Suzanne is lovingly remembered by her husband, JR Bischof; her children, Savanna, Justin, and Ashley; her granddaughter, Callie; her mother, Marthanne; and her brothers, Tim and John. She is also survived by a large extended family who held her in the highest regard.

A devoted member of Awaken Church in Tifton, Georgia, Suzanne found strength and community in her faith, attending services regularly. Her life was a beautiful tapestry, woven with laughter, love, and unforgettable memories. Whether on family vacations, camping under the stars, or simply soaking up the sun at the beach or the peaceful mountains, Suzanne embraced every moment with boundless enthusiasm and joy.

Suzanne was the heart and soul of her family—always the first to plan a trip and the most dedicated cheerleader on the sidelines for her children and granddaughter. Her laughter was contagious, her dancing infectious, and her presence illuminated every room she entered. Suzanne’s steadfast support and unconditional love made her the ultimate cheerleader for those she held dear.

A Celebration of Suzanne’s Life will be held on Saturday, May 31, 2025, from 1:30 to 4:00 p.m. at TPepin’s Hospitality Centre, 4121 N 50th St, Tampa, FL 33610. Her memory will live on, inspiring warmth, unity, and love in all those who were fortunate enough to know her. May her spirit continue to shine through every smile shared and every joyful moment spent together.
