Visit the Myrhum-Patten Funeral & Cremation Service - Kewaskum website to view the full obituary.

Our beloved mother, grandmother, great grandmother, loving wife and friend, Suzanne Bingen of Kewaskum, WI entered into eternal life on Friday, February 14, 2025, the feast of St Valentine, at Kettle Moraine Gardens at the age of 87. Our blessed Mother Mary presented her to her beloved son, Jesus (God's greatest Valentine to us), to bask in His rays of Divine Mercy forever. In her final days, she was surrounded by family who helped her battle advancing age and its accompanying dementia.

She will be lovingly remembered by her husband of 59 years, Dennis; children: Daniel (Chandel) Bingen, Timothy (Amy) Bingen, Deborah (Charles) Nevsimal; grandchildren: Matthew, Hannah (fiancé Shane Fultz), Abigail (Shawn) O'Keefe, Gavin, Braden, Gianna and Cassius; and great grandchild: Amora Bingen; step-grandchildren: Tyler Wendt, Cody Wendt and Calista Muraski; step-great grandchild: Kayden Wendt.

Suzanne was preceded in death by her parents, Ed and Florence Nielsen; siblings, Joan, Janet, her twin Sally, and brother Ed.

She was a most gentle and honest woman who loved greatly and saw the beauty of God's gifts everywhere. Her example of humility and self-sacrifice, her sense of humor and Christ-like love will continue to guide her family. Suzi was a breast cancer survivor and dedicated pro-life advocate who, as a devout Catholic, drew strength from daily prayer and mass. She loved baking, poetry, art, music (especially John Prine), birdwatching, and making handmade Valentines for her “hubby.” Her favorite scripture quote will be fondly remembered by us: “God is love.” (1 John 4:8)

VISITATION: Suzanne's family will greet relatives and friends on Wednesday, February 26, 2025, from 12 until 12:45 PM at Holy Trinity Catholic Parish, Kewaskum.

SERVICE: A Mass of Christian Burial will be celebrated after visitation at 1:00 PM.

 BURIAL: The Rite of Committal at Holy Trinity Cemetery directly following service.

 The family would like to thank the staff at Kettle Moraine Gardens for their care and compassion for Suzi, as well as Lily Hospice for the extra care they provided over these past few months.

The Myrhum - Patten Funeral & Cremation Service has been entrusted with arrangements. Additional information and guest book may be found at www.myrhum-patten.com.
