Suzanne Scherer Lines

Suzanne Scherer Lines was born on February 23, 1945, in Los Angeles, California, to Ray Leo Scherer and Virginia Grant. Along with her only sibling, Yvonne (Bonnie), the family lived in the same home in Glendale, California.

With the influence of good neighbors who invited her to church, Suzanne was baptized a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. She graduated with honors from high school. Based on her outstanding merits, she earned a full scholarship to Brigham Young University, where she majored in accounting and graduated summa cum laude. During her senior year at BYU, she was introduced to the love of her life, Gene Lines.

Less than eight months after their first date, the couple was married in the Los Angeles California Temple on June 9, 1967. After following career opportunities in New Mexico and California, the couple settled in Mesa, Arizona, in 1976 and never looked back.

Suzanne and Gene are the proud parents of 13 children, 52 grandchildren, and 31 great-grandchildren: Amy (Brad) Johnson, Bryan (Michell) Lines, Lisa (Craig) Martin, Natalie (Mason) Davis, Melissa (Brady) Eaves, Troy (Emily) Lines, Damon (Jenna) Lines, Meggan (Peter) Nielsen, Jennifer (Jake) Willis, Michael Lines, Lexi Lines, Raymond Lines, and Josh Lines.

On the evening of December 13, 2025, Mom departed mortality with family by her side. Mom understood and taught Christlike principles in the home and within the community. As husband and children, we share our knowledge of “The Living Christ.” Because of Him, “The divine plan of happiness enables family relationships to be perpetuated beyond the grave.” We love you, Mom. Until we meet again.

Services will be held at 11 a.m. on December 19, 2025, at The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints located at 2740 S. Lindsay Rd, Gilbert, AZ 85295.
