Susan E. Rahn

Susan Elaine Rahn was born Tuesday, December 23,1952 to Eugene "Gene" and Shirley Darlene Myers. She died on Tuesday, January 3, 2023 in Broken Arrow, Oklahoma. She was 70 years of age. Susan was raised in Delaware, Oklahoma, graduating from Delaware High School where she was a team member of the lady’s basketball squad and a cheerleader during the men's games. She then attended Coffeyville Community College in Coffeyville, Kansas. Susan and Mark were married on a February day. She always claimed it was a hundred years ago. It was cold and windy, which wasn’t really her favorite type of day. Susan and Mark moved into a quiet country neighborhood home outside of Siloam Springs. Susan was a member of Calvary Baptist Church in West Siloam Springs, Oklahoma where she attended until her health failed her. Susan worked as a dental assistant until she decided to attended beauty college at Rita's Hair Design in Fayetteville, Arkansas. After graduation, she worked at JC Penney’s Hair Salon in the Fayetteville Mall until she got the opportunity to move her clientele to Renee's Cut Above in Siloam Springs. She later purchased the salon and renamed it Upstage Hair Salon and operated it for 35 years. She enjoyed having long entertaining conversations with her clients. Along with family time, and spending time with her grandkids, she enjoyed helping others. She loved taking pictures of places she had visited. She spent time training a bunch of church kids to be puppet team members, always asking- "are we going to get this?" Susan was a special lady, a great companion, and great travel partner. She even had her own GPS on her side of the vehicle so she wouldn't get lost! She was a wonderful dive buddy, always bringing up a found treasure from below. In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions can be made to the new building fund of Calvary Baptist Church, 7727 Cedar Dr., Colcord, OK 74338. Susan is survived by, husband Mark Rahn of Siloam Springs, Arkansas and sons Shawn of Fayetteville Arkansas, Matthew and his wife Tara of Muskogee, Oklahoma, 2 grand-children, Michael and Audrey of Muskogee, Oklahoma, as well as her work friends and clients from her hair salon, and family of Calvary Baptist Church. Proceeding her in death were her parents, and her brother Mike Myers.
