| | 1952-2018 | | | | | | On January 3, 2018, three days after her 66th birthday, Suzanne Warrick passed away peacefully at her home in Lafayette surrounded by family - husband Doug Warrick, daughter Dr. Ali Warrick, and Ali's boyfriend Mark Stefanik. She had been battling cancer for a mere eight weeks when a stroke suddenly took her from us.
Suzanne liked to say she "woke up happy." She was quick-witted, fun, rambunctious, and genuine. "It is free to give a smile," she said. "Unconditional love conquers all." She loved to cheer people on, celebrate the joy in every day, and make angel food cakes for friends' birthdays.
As owner of the Contra Costa design firm Interiors, Suzanne spun at the center of a large circle of clients, suppliers, and colleagues, many of whom became lifelong friends. Although she focused on others' accomplishments, her own designs were regarded as works of art by her clients.
Her passion was in supporting others, including her daughter Ali through college, medical school, and now residency at UC Davis, specializing in Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation.
In lieu of flowers, the family would appreciate gifts to the Suzanne Warrick Memorial Scholarship Fund to support future health care providers at the UC Davis School of Medicine. Mail donations to the Office of University Development, One Shields Ave., Davis, CA 95616, payable to the UC Regents. Or visit give.ucdavis.edu/medi/324165. A celebration of Suzanne's life will be scheduled later.
