BERGEN – Mrs. Susie
1932 – 2012
Mrs. Susie Bergen, late of Shellbrook passed away on September 19, 2012 at the age of 79 years. Susie was born in the Mayfair district on November 10, 1932. Her family moved to the Lake Four district where she attended school. In 1953, she married Abe Bergen.
After Abe’s passing in 1993, Susie continued to live on the farm and showed great strength and courage after such a devastating loss. In time, she developed a special relationship with Fred Ziegler, which continued until her passing.
After Susie moved to Shellbrook, she led a very busy social life. Very few days went by where she didn’t have visitors or go out for coffee with someone.
She made many trips to the farm, spending time in the summer at her ‘home away from home’, a comfortable camper complete with air conditioning, a built-in deck, and her own small vegetable garden.
Susie loved every member of her family and was proud of them all. Her compassion, good nature and humor will be dearly missed.
Susie is survived by her children: Carol of Big River, SK; Dick (Della) of Big River, SK; Joyce (Ron) of Red Deer, AB; and Ron (Lori) of Saskatoon, SK; her grandchildren Brent, Ryan (MacKenzie) and their children Jaycob, Coy and Carly; Mark (Kelly) and their children Lane, Kara and Devyn; Jason (Kari) and their children Austin, Brooke, and Bentley; Mike (Tamara); Ashley (Courtney) and their children Ashton, Bridget and Dré; Bryce (Jay-Dean). Her sister Mary Thiessen of Big River, SK; her brother Willie (Linda “Jo”) of Quesnel, B.C.; and her best friend Phylis Plageman of Shellbrook, SK.
