Suzanne Marie Caines – 4/8/1963 to 10/17/2025
Suzanne will be remembered for her warmth, sense of humor, and unwavering kindness and care for those around her. She never met a stranger and always tried to make others feel comfortable and seen.
She LOVED her job working as an Administrative Assistant 2 for the WSP District 1 office. Every time we drove around, and she saw the troopers on the road, she'd tell us, "There's my boys stay safe"!!
Suzanne's greatest joy came from grandchildren, great grandson, her family and extended family. Suzanne is survived by her Mother JoAnne Caines (preceded by Father Jim Caines), her brother Dennis Caines, sisters Cathy Daniell and Christy Lowder, her daughter Misty Thogerson (preceded by grandsons Carter and Camden), and her son, Matthew Thogerson and granddaughters Alyssa, Kashlynn (Gavin & grandson John), Annabelle, Madelyn and Keera. Additional family Jon, Julie, McKenzie and Eli Horner.
Reception for Suzanne will be at Funeral Alternatives on Friday, 12/5/25 from 3-5 p.m. Please come and pay your respects, no formality, just friends and loved ones getting together to remember her.

To plant trees in memory, please visit the Sympathy Store.
