End of an Era

Susan Denise Hastings has been a fixture in the Katy Community for over 30 years. We here at HCDVCC, have known Susan and her outstanding dedication to helping domestic violence and sexual assault survivors and their families for over 20 years. Susan has been instrumental in the growth of Katy Christian Ministries Crisis Center. She has been a steady hand at the helm for many years and has overseen its growth into the Center it is today. Susan has also been active on several HCDVCC Committees including the Policy Committee and the Legal Services Committee. We know we can always count on Susan and KCM’s help when we needed it. I do not recall a time Susan ever said no it was more like “Well, let me see what we can do.”

As of April 1st, Susan has closed the book on her time with Katy Christian Ministries and is moving on to a life of rest and relaxation to quote her she has “gone fishing!” We wish Susan and her husband Bill, the best retirement. And knowing Susan we will be seeing her pop up occasionally, because she just can’t sit still!

Thank you, Susan, for everything you have done for so many survivors and their families. Thank you to Susan’s family for letting us spend some time with her. And I would like to say Susan- thank you for your support and kindness through the years. You are one of a kind and will be greatly missed but you are leaving the ship in good hands with Celina Wells!
