Diana ‘Susie’ Mae Wildt

Diana ‘Susie’ Mae Wildt (nee Planin­shek), 82, of Ke­waskum, passed away at her Ket­tle Moraine Gar­dens home on Sat­ur­day, Nov. 18, 2023. She was sur­rounded by her lov­ing fam­ily in the days and hours lead­ing up to her time of pass­ing.
Diana was given the nick­name ‘Susie’ by her fa­ther at a very young age and it was what every­one called her and knew her by. Susie was born on Sep­tem­ber 25, 1941, in Mil­wau­kee, to An­thony and Dorothy (nee Scheuing) Planin­shek.
Susie had the biggest heart, and giv­ing was a part of who she was. She ded­i­cated her self­less life to nurs­ing and was an emer­gency room LPN at Hart­ford Memo­r­ial Hos­pi­tal for 40 years, work­ing mostly on the overnight hours. Susie loved her fam­ily. Her con­ta­gious laugh and kind na­ture will be re­mem­bered fondly by all who knew her. She loved puz­zles of all kinds, board and card games, and any events she could par­take in over the years in­volv­ing her chil­dren and grand­chil­dren. Susie loved an­i­mals, es­pe­cially her grand kit­ties, Zeus, Bently, and The Schmütz; grand dog­gies, Suki, Thor, and Bruno. And, we can­not for­get, she loved her Green Bay Pack­ers!
Susie is sur­vived by her beloved hus­band of 48 years, Matthew; sons, Brian (Jackie) Wildt, Brett (Tracy) Wildt, Tim Wildt; daugh­ter, Kari Wildt; grand­chil­dren, Brooke, Bryce, and Brady Wildt; spe­cial niece, who was like a daugh­ter, Toni Kubasiak; brother, Jack (Gail) Planin­shek; two broth­ers-in-law, Ken (Nancy) Wildt and Jim (Pat) Wildt; fam­ily friend, Dar­lene Boho; and many other beloved fam­ily and friends.
She was pre­ceded in death by her fa­ther, An­thony Planin­shek; mother, Dorothy Planin­shek; fa­ther-in-law, Math­ias Wildt; mother-in-law, Eliz­a­beth Wildt; sis­ter, Rose Wendt; a brother-in-law, Roy (Sharon) Wildt; and many other loved ones.
