Age - 88

December 9, 2023

Suzanne (Stumbaugh) Van Wye passed from this life into the eternal presence of her Lord and Saviour on December 7, 2023 surrounded by her husband and family. Suzanne was born on August 16, 1935 in Ashland, Ohio to Allen and Otha Stumbaugh. She had an outgoing personality, charming wit and a beautiful smile. She loved playing the piano and enjoyed playing the oboe in her High School marching band. At the age of 13 an orphan boy fell in love with her and her smile captured his heart. Although it took time for "Susie" to come around, they got married at the age of 18. Years of adventure awaited them. They lived every moment together and their commitment to each other was recently celebrated at their 70* anniversary. Their commitment to the Lord and each other has kept and sustained them. Suzanne would tell you that the most important decision she ever made was on July 19, 1960 when she and her husband knelt beside the couch in their living room and put their faith and trust in Jesus as their Saviour. This decision alone impacted the direction of the family for generations to come. Suzanne attended Baptist Bible College in Springfield, Missouri graduating in 1970, all while raising 4 children. She enjoyed serving the Lord at church in various ways. She was the pianist, Sunday School teacher and had a beautiful soprano voice. She also had a gift and passion for storytelling. Children were captivated by her. Suzanne influenced and encouraged many children over the years that are now serving the Lord in ministry. Suzanne loved family gatherings and for many years cooked Sunday dinner. Her family especially loved it when she made spaghetti. When she wasn't gathering with family you could find her on the back porch feeding the birds and watching for deer. Suzanne was preceded in death by her parents, Allen and Otha Stumbaugh, 3 brothers, Allen Jr. , Larry and Roe Stumbaugh, and infant granddaughter, Jessica Yvonne Van Wye. She is survived by her husband Henry Darwyn Van Wye of Loganville, GA, son David (Judy) of Loganville, GA; daughter Amy Sue Burnett (Brad) of Oxford, MS, son Eric (Tammy) of Bartonville, IL, and daughter Angela of Loganville, GA. She is also survived by 9 grandchildren; Laura, Andrea, Eric, Adam, David, Jennifer, Phillip, Andy, Abby and 16 great-grandchildren.
