Carol "Sue" A. Populorum, nee Vanden Noven, 85, passed away on June 5, 2021. She was preceded in death by the love of her life, Robert "Bob" (2019).
Sue was born and raised in Green Bay, WI. It is there where she met Bob, and 58 years of fun, laughter, and her sitting back and giggling at his shenanigans began. Bob was fun-loving and a wonderful husband and father. And Sue, she was the heartbeat of the entire family. They truly were an incredible couple.
Sue was always ready to welcome people into their home- family, friends, friends of family – it didn't matter. You just knew that, on the other side of that door, there was a big, warm hug waiting for you, a listening ear if you needed one, and plenty of food and drink for anyone and everyone at a moment's notice (she always grocery shopped as if she already had a full house). And, if she knew you were coming, probably your favorite meal - and, of course, mac-n-cheese and Nesquik chocolate milk for the grandkids. She wanted you to be comfortable and stay a while. Everyone was - and did.
When not at home, Sue could be found with one or more of her friends – and she had many - playing bridge, tennis or golf, or lunching. She didn't need an excuse – any gathering was an occasion and a reason to look her best.
While it hurts deeply to lose her, Sue left a little piece of herself with so many of us and, for that, we couldn't be more grateful.
