Sending virtual hugs and loving prayers to my Uncle George and my cousins Todd, Troy and Tara. I was always welcomed with open arms by my Aunt Suzanne. She always made sure my belly full food when I was there for a visit from CA. Thank you Aunt Suzanne, always loved and forever in our hearts.
My sincere sympathy to George, his children, and all other families. Suzanne was such a sweet and thoughtful person. We will be heading out of town Thursday morning, so unfortunately, we will not be able to attend the visitation or funeral service. Please know our thoughts and prayers will be with all families. Sincerely, Denny and Shari Keck

I’m so sorry to hear of Suzanne’s passing. She was a classmate of mine at Notre Dame & was a sweet person. May you cherish all good memories.
Our deepest sympathy to George & Family.
I am deeply sorry for your loss.
I have very fond memories of my cousin Susan. She was my brother Danny’s god mother. She was so giving. My mother Rita Muehlenfeld is her mother’s sister. I remember when I was in grade school, and she had married and moved out to the dairy, she invited us to come visit during Christmas break. She brought a pony up to the driveway so we could ride it.
I thought I had arrived. Such a kind and wonderful person. I have no doubt we shall meet again.
My deepest sympathies to your who family. David Schulte
