Suzanne Rapp Obituary

Suzanne "Suzy" M. (Jonczak) Rapp, 68, of Delmont, passed away peacefully on Saturday, Aug. 9, 2025. She was born on June 4, 1957, in Harrison Township, the daughter of the late Chester Jonczak and the late Margaret (Golier) Jonczak. She was also preceded in death by her brother, Timothy Jonczak; her brother-in-law, Gene Lattus; and her three cherished Yorkies, who are surely waiting to greet her. Suzy was a force of nature in every sense of the word fierce, unstoppable, and unapologetically herself with a sharp wit, a love for a little harmless gossip, and an uncanny ability to spot anything out of place, and the satisfaction of pointing it out. Suzy is survived by her beloved son, Chad, and his wife, Mandy, with whom she shared her home in Delmont and who, along with her precious Yorkie Trixie and French Bulldog granddog Lulu, were by her side through life's challenges and its joys. Together, they shared in her stubborn determination, her quick humor, and the kind of fierce, all-in love that defined her life. She is also survived by her sister, Mary Margaret Lattus (the late Gene); her brother, Chester (Kathy) Jonczak; and many nieces, nephews, great-nieces, and great-nephews. Suzy took pride in her work as a branch officer of the First Catholic Slovak Ladies Association, Branch 313 St. Ann's Society in Natrona, and as a receptionist at Composidie in Apollo. Her family invites you to share your favorite "Suzy stories," laugh at the memories, and celebrate a woman who lived on her own terms, loved her people (and her pups) with everything she had, and left behind stories that will be told for years. Friends will be received from 5 to 8 p.m. Wednesday, Aug. 13, 2025, in CICHOLSKI-ZIDEK FUNERAL HOME INC., 1522 Carlisle St., Natrona Heights, 724-224-8688, where a parting prayer service will be held at 11:30 a.m. Thursday, Aug. 14, 2025. Mass of Christian Burial will follow at noon in Most Blessed Sacrament Church. Burial will be in Our Lady of Hope Cemetery, Frazer Township.

In lieu of flowers, contributions in memory of Suzanne may be made to the Animal Protectors of Allegheny Valley, 730 Church St., New Kensington, PA 15068.
