SUSAN R. WILSON

Sue Wilson passed away unexpectantly on Wednesday, March 19, 2025 at the University of Iowa Hospital with her husband by her side. She was born on Dec. 5, 1948, the daughter of Jack and Jean Laing. Sue grew up in Humboldt and graduated from Humboldt High School in 1967. She met Darryl in 1966 and they were united in marriage in 1971 in Denver, CO and together they embarked on a life of love and adventure.
After moving back to Humboldt in 1973, Sue worked in several retail stores. They moved to Boone and built a life together for 36 years where she worked as a chiropractic assistant before retiring in 2003. After retirement, Sue and Darryl returned to Humboldt to be closer to family. She especially cherished time spent with her nieces and nephews who adored their Aunt Sue. To know Sue was to know one of the kindest souls – a woman with a soft touch, an even softer heart and an endless capacity to make those around her feel at home and at peace.
Sue was preceded in death by: Her parents, her sister Pat, a niece and nephew, and her stepfather. She is survived by her husband Darryl, sisters-Sandy Pride, Diane Kunert, Paula Myers and Pam (Mark) Kunert, brothers-in-law Mark and Brian (Margie) and many nieces and nephews.
In keeping her wishes, no formal funeral services will be held.
Sue’s gentle spirit and warm heart will be deeply missed but never forgotten.
