    I met Sue through Tim Powers, at St Peter's Church. I would see her at the garage sale, the Christmas bazaar, and the weekly mass. We talked a lot about different things. I helped her and her husband with some legal matters, when their son passed away. Sue and her Family we're always kind, generous and thoughtful. They always had laughter to share. I'll miss her. She was really a well-organized person, who really loved her community, and really like to help others. Rhonda M Kisting and Greg A Powers 💙😔

    I have known Sue since Lapham grade school. We have had many of the same interactions in life, such as city voting clerks, warner park activities, voting clerks, Warner park activities, and Jim playing city softball with my brother Art. Our sympathy to the family. Sue Masshardt Marking

    Besides Women's Week Sue and I always saw each other at the Capitol for St. Patrick's Day. Both of us loved being Irish and a bit crazy! She will be missed...

    I am so glad Susan was able to come to the Baby Shower we had for little Audree in October. I so enjoyed spending time with her!

what our families say

Tiffany Foster went out of her way to fulfill all my requests, talked me through problems I was facing, and tried to make me feel as comfortable as possible when I was a wreck, totally crushed, and I thank her with all of my heart for that.

The professional manner of the staff made a difficult time a little easier.

Lynda R. | July 2020

Services provided for both parents were perfect, on time, and no issues. Brenda is awesome and strong!

Skyler was absolutely amazing. She was so caring and helpful through this whole process. She even went above and beyond to meet with us in DeForest and even to make a stop at our home to drop off or pick up anything needed. While it was a small gesture, it was so helpful and greatly appreciated.
