Suzette Kae Cline, age 69, passed away on July 5, 2024 at her home in Obstruction Pass. She was born on April 2, 1955 in Bellingham, Washington to mother Rozetta (Genie) Shaw and father Ernest Janitscheck.

She was a proud resident of Orcas Island for over 40 years and volunteered and worked hard in many places throughout the community.

Sue’s deepest passions were her family, gardens and pets. She was outgoing, driven, funny, kind and loving to many and always had the ability to make anyone smile.

She is survived by her mother Genie Shaw, brother Shane Janitscheck, her children Noah Cline, Jonah Cline and Jasmin Cline and her five beloved grandchildren. Sue left a loving, lasting impression on all who had the honor to meet her and she will be greatly missed.

A celebration of life will be announced soon, all will be welcome.
