Donna M. Suszek

Donna M. Suszek, age 79, of Brandon, WI, passed away peacefully at her residence, on Sunday, April 12, 2026. She was born on October 9, 1946, in Chicago, IL, the daughter of Chester and Jennie (Hill) Ludwig.

On July 18, 1989, she married Richard A. Suszek in Rhinelander, WI.

Donna attended Willowbrook High School in Villa Park, IL, and went on to Northern Illinois University. Her organizational and secretarial skills served her well throughout her career, from the offices of doctors and attorneys, Marian College to Mercury Marine in Fond du Lac, WI where she worked for 15 years, before retiring. No matter where she worked, her quick wit and charm made a lasting impression on those around her.

In her spare time, Donna enjoyed reading and working in her flower garden.

She is survived by her husband, Richard and her children, Amoret (Jerome) Ruppel and Trevor (Julie) Driscoll; her grandchildren, Jacob, Melinda, Stephanie and Erin, and several great-grandchildren. She was preceded in death by her beloved granddaughter, Lisa.
