Susan J Fritts, age 71, formerly of Enid, OK, died Saturday, January 8th, 2022.
A memorial service is scheduled at 11:00 a.m. Saturday, January 15th, at Redeemer Covenant Church in Tulsa, directed by Fitzgerald Southwood Colonial Chapel.
Susan Jean Fritts, formerly of Enid, Oklahoma, beloved mother of Robert and Emily, passed away Saturday, January 8th, at the age of 71 in her hometown of Tulsa, Oklahoma, in the loving care of Clarehouse and St. Francis Hospice, with her children at her side.
She rejoins her parents, Robert and Jean Kygar, and is survived by her sister, Linda Tindell; her son, Robert Fritts and wife, Karen; her daughter, Emily Collins and husband, Chris; her many adoring and deeply loved grandchildren; and her lifelong friends and extended family.
Susan was born and raised in Tulsa, Oklahoma, where she made lifelong friends in Wendy Hardgrove and her many other Campfire sisters. After graduating Oklahoma State University (BS, '72), Susan married Bill Fritts the same year, eventually settling in Enid as a young wife and mother in 1977. She later divorced and raised Robert and Emily as a single mom while building her career at Security National Bank, making more lifelong friends and moving up through various positions from switchboard operator through senior executive roles.
Susan and her children were active members of First United Methodist Church in Enid. In 2003, Susan relocated to Tulsa to be closer to her children, and she began a second career at Arvest Bank, where she returned to work she loved — taking care of people, both customers and her tellers.
Susan found great joy and her greatest role in 2004, when she became Mimi for the first time. Mimi held, loved, and cherished each of her grandkids — Kate, Will, Andrew, Matthew, and Finn, and bonus grandkid, Violet.
She was surrounded by all she loved in the end — family, friends, gardens, and hospice. She is deeply loved and missed by all those who loved her and knew her.
A memorial service is scheduled for 11 a.m. Saturday, Jan. 15, 2022, at Redeemer Church, 5415 E 101st St., Tulsa, directed by Fitzgerald Southwood Colonial Chapel.
In honor of the care she received from hospice, and affection she has for their mission, please consider donations to a local hospice in lieu of flowers.
