Livermore CA

Susan Ann Dutro, a long-time resident of Livermore, CA passed away peacefully on April 11, 2025. Susan was preceded in death by her husband of 60 years, David and is survived by daughters Jennifer Jacobus and Amy Scribner, her brother and sister-in-law Jack and Patty Dear, brother-in-law and sister-in-law John and Pat Dutro, son-in-laws Dan and Bill, grandchildren Rick, Emily and Julia and great-granddaughter Brooklyn. Susan was born to William Dear Sr. and Eunice Dear in Vallejo, CA. Susan graduated from Livermore High School and went to work at the Livermore Lawrence National Laboratory and married David James Dutro in 1962. Susan had a passion for travel, gardening and reading; she was not one to turn down a good Danielle Steele book. She and David were quite the travelers and were lucky to travel to destinations including Hawaii, Greece, and Ireland. After enjoying several years as a stay-at-home-mom, Susan went to work for a local neurologist in Livermore, retiring from the same doctor after more than 30 years. Susan was happiest when she was with family and her long-time friends from high school and when “all the chicks were in the nest” (as she liked to say), sharing good food and good wine.

We will all miss her kindness and that she was always just a call away.
