She was a member at Redeemer Lutheran Church where she was active in Church Circle, Choir, and was also a youth group leader. Suzanne was on the Board at Thrivent, she was a 4H leader, she participated in Homemakers Club, and she often hosted a card club. In her free time, she loved to travel, sing, watch movies, and spend time with her husband, children, and grandchildren. Her family meant the world to her.
