Susanne "Susie" Wise Andrews, 83, passed away at home on Tuesday, March 2, 2021.

She was born in Greenville, SC to the late Carlton "C.T." and Miriam Sturkey Wise on November 14, 1937.

She was married to the love of her life, Edward G. "Eddie" Andrews, for almost 64 years. Susie was a graduate of Greenville High School class of 1955 and a graduate of Columbia College class of 1957. She was formerly employed by The Principal Financial Group and retired from Richtex Brick.

Susie was a faithful member of Earle Street Baptist Church and was a longtime former member of First Presbyterian Church of Greenville and the Agape Sunday School class. Susie proudly told everyone that she was born a Methodist, spent most of her married life as a Presbyterian and after joining Earle Street, she realized that she had been a life-long Baptist-at-heart.

Susie enjoyed spending time at their beach house at Surfside Beach for the past 40 years. She also loved spending time with her dogs, Rosie and Tilly.

In addition to her husband, Susie is survived by two daughters, Amy Andrews of Greenville, and Jill Andrews Phillips (Brian) of Birmingham, AL; grandchildren, Mary Parker Phillips, and Carlton Phillips (Julia Travagline) also of Birmingham; and her sister and brother-in-law, Sally Wise (Michael Watts) and sister-in-law, Donna Wise.

In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her brother, Terry Wise.

When I moved to Greenville I was in  the third grade at Augusta Circle Elementary and felt so lonely .  Soon Susie made friends with me and made my life better.  All though elementary school we were very best friends.  When we went to junior high my family moved and we were not as close.  When the ladies of our graduation class started eating lunch together Susie and I renewed our friendship.  I will miss her so so much.  Prayers  for all of her family.
Peace of mind is a call away. We’re here when you need us most.

Since I spent a great deal of my childhood days at their house, there are lots of memories. From sleep overs to snack time in the kitchen while Susie sewed, she knew how to keep an eye on us girls. Thank goodness I grew up at a time when your friends parents knew just as much about you as your own parents!

I will greatly miss our sweet loving and beautiful Cousin Susie! She was alway such a delight and joy to know and be with. We’ve shared many good times over the years together in person, letters and emails. Her lovely smile and happy fun disposition was catching and her testimony for her Lord and Savior was refreshing! Susie’s with her wonderful Lord, family and friends, right now, but she’ll be greatly missed by us all here on this earth. We look forward to seeing her again in Eternity!
