Susan “Sue” Mattson, age 71, passed away at home, surrounded by her loving family, on Wednesday, August 7, 2024.
Sue was born in Fond du Lac, WI on May 30, 1953. She graduated from Park High School in 1971. She spent years as a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) and always knew how to individualize each resident’s care based on their needs. Among her interests, Sue was an excellent seamstress; she was very crafty, and her handmade Christmas Stockings were always so impressive. Her wittiness and great sense of humor always made people laugh. If you knew Sue, her motto was “Git-R-Done”. We were all inspired by the strong independent woman she was, especially with everything she went through. She is a super hero!
Surviving are her mother, Delores Dale; children, Tasya (Brian) Exner, Shawn (Joel) Mikulecky, Tiffany (Tim) Zirbel and Gary (Lori) Exner, Jr.; grandchildren, Taylor, Kaila, Miranda, Hunter, Sydnee, Skyler, Austin, Raelyn and Olivia; 6 great grandchildren; sister, Sherri (Jim) Johnson; brothers, Butch (Sonya) Mielke and Bill Mielke; her dog, Lillie and bird, Duffy. Sue was preceded in death by her husband, Gregory Mattson; grandmother, Clara Betry and grandfather, Rodney Betry.

Tasha, Shawn, Tiffany and Gary Wayne, We are so sorry to hear about your mom. Although I wasn’t around her a lot because we lived in Tennessee, it was always a joy to see her. She was a strong woman and I always admired her. We are praying for you all and love you!!! Butch and Sonya
