KUALA LUMPUR: Datin Susan Lovie, the widow of Alleycats singer Datuk Loganathan Arumugam, has passed away at the age of 69, according to her daughter Dasha Logan. Susan succumbed to chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) at Hospital Kuala Lumpur on October 2 at 8.47am, after being admitted 10 days prior due to a sudden decline in health.
Dasha recounted her mother's hospitalization, which began around 1.30am on the day of her admission. Despite being ill for more than 15 years and even losing her eyesight and mobility, Susan remained positive and supportive of her children's careers. She passed away at the tender age of 69. Susan's wake will be held at the Church of the Good Shepherd in Setapak, with the funeral mass scheduled for the following day at 10 am.
Afterwards, her remains will be transported to the Cheras Crematorium. Loganathan and his elder brother Datuk David Arumugam co-founded The Alleycats, a multiracial pop and rock band that achieved fame with hits like Hingga Akhir Nanti and Andai Aku Pergi Dulu. Susan's final public appearance was at the launch of Dasha's EP, Legasi, which included new renditions of several Alleycats songs.
