Loving mother of Sue (Jerry) Matzelle, Kathy Markley, Paul (Diane) Szablewski, Holly Szablewski and Wendy Helland.

Sue was predeceased by her daughter Mary Kay Holguin, parents Eileen and John Harrison, husband Gilbert Szablewski, granddaughter Jodi Fox and brother David (Rose) Harrison.
After Sue’s husband Gil passed away in 1995, she left a career as a paralegal in Milwaukee to courageously pursue her lifelong dream of owning a bakery. Sue fell in love with the Mississippi River town of Marquette, Iowa after passing through when visiting her sister, Iva. Along the way, she met Larry Breuer, and in 1997 he helped make her dream come true when together they designed, and Larry built, the Wildflour Bakery & Confectionery.
Sue’s love, wittiness, wisdom, sense of humor, strength and courage will be missed dearly by all who knew her and she will live in our hearts forever.
