Susette's obituary

Susette Marie Wankowski (nee. Pindel), 59, passed away unexpectedly at home on November 19th, 2022. Susette was born on June 25th, 1963 to George and Yvonne Pindel in Milwaukee, WI. Graduated from Greenfield High School, class of 81’. Retired secretary for over 25 years with the Clark County School District.

A proud mom and dog grandma, she never missed a choir concert, school musical, field trip, or school fundraiser. She enjoyed decorating for every holiday, dressing up for Packer games, and making every event feel like a party. She always had a way of making sure that everyone felt special. She had passions for keeping up with everyone on social media and finding new recipes to try. Def Leppard, Journey, and Machine Gun Kelly were her favorite bands although she enjoyed all music. Anytime a new mountain dew flavor came out, she had to get it and do a taste test. If she was watching tv, it was probably a true crime documentary or a paranormal show. Her happy place was the beach and near palm trees. Her house was decorated with seashells.

Preceded in death by her mother, Yvonne Pindel; and her daughter, Heather Wankowski.

She is survived by Robert Wankowski, her husband of 38 years; daughter Maile Wankowski; father, George Pindel; brother Kevin Pindel (Jackie); cousins, and  many nieces, nephews, grand nieces, and grand nephews.

She will be missed and forever loved.
