Susie W Konicov's Obituary
Bradenton - Konicov, Susie W., age 84, passed away Saturday, February 21, 2026. Devoted mother of Stephanie Konicov-Banfill (Kathy King) and Gary Jan Konicov (Annedys), loving grandmother of Mikayla Clark (Matt), Skyler Banfill, Lynch Robles and L.A. Konicov, and beloved great-grandmother of Jackson Clark.
As a child survivor of the Holocaust whose parents survived internment at Bergen-Belsen concentration camp, Susie dedicated her life to a profound purpose— as a Jewish educator and Hebrew teacher, she sought to honor her parents by ensuring future generations were deeply immersed in Jewish culture.
This commitment was exemplified through every Bar/Bat Mitzvah and adult student she taught over her sixty-year career.
She also made substantial global contributions as an editor and publisher of transformative works intended to provide individuals with the resources to cultivate more harmonious and purposeful lives.
A name synonymous with love and purpose, Susie was understanding by nature and lived authentically, an intelligent woman whose kindness was felt by all.
