Jesusita (Morales) Clancy was born on December 24, 1935, in San Antonio, TX. She was the fifth of nine children born to Antonio and Maria (Alcoser) Morales. The family moved to Blooming Prairie, MN when Susie was 12. She met John Clancy and they were married in Waseca, MN on August 7, 1971 at Sacred Heart Catholic Church. In 1973, John and Susie moved to Tracy, MN where they raised their two daughters, Julie and Brenda. Later they moved to Mesa, AZ. John and Susie owned Tele-Radio and Clothesline Laundry for almost 30 years. Susie always made sure the coffee was on for all the visitors that would stop in to the store to chat and to share a good story. Susie was best known for her caring nature, for always being willing to help others, and for her fantastic Mexican cooking! She could almost always be found with a crochet needle in her hands creating many keepsakes for her family and friends.
