Susan Kleinert Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Aug. 30, 2025.
Susan Janan Kleinert, 75, passed away unexpectedly at her home in Pensacola, Florida. Born in Madison, Wisconsin, she spent most of her life in Sun Prairie, Wisconsin, until relocating to Pensacola in 2023.

Susan is lovingly survived by her sons, Shawn and Corey Williams, and her beloved grandson, Shawn's son, Sam, who was truly the light of her life. She also leaves behind her sister, Amy Fleres; brothers Tim, Jeff, and Mike Kleinert; nieces Arika Kleinert, Angela Skalitzky, Becky Fleres, and Kassidy Kleinert; and nephews Joshua Kleinert, Eric Fleres, Kobe Kleinert, and Kage Kleinert.

She was preceded in death by her parents, Harlan and Renée Kleinert, and her sisters, Laurie and Becky Kleinert.

Susan was a kind, loving, and unforgettable woman. She was simply the best. Her warmth, humor, and unwavering love will be deeply missed by all who knew her. We love you, Mom.

A celebration of life will be held at a later date.
