of Mountain Home, AR

January 20, 1959 - May 2, 2025

Ms. Susan 'Sue' Elaine Wepprecht was born in Kankakee, Illinois on January 20, 1959. After a long battle with cancer, the Lord called Sue home on May 2, 2025.

Sue grew up in Herscher, Illinois, where she gained many lifelong friends in the school marching band. In 1979, Sue and her family moved to Scottsdale, Arizona, where she attended nursing school and became an RN. She worked with children in hospitals and many doctors' offices in the Scottsdale and Tucson areas. She had her daughter, Elizabeth, in 1994 and moved to the Mountain Home, Arkansas area with her daughter's father, Ron, in 1999. There, she worked in more doctors' offices and hospitals to help children. Sue finally found her true passion in 2011, becoming a school nurse. This was her true calling and each child who entered her office can attest to that. In this role, she was a nurse, counselor, friend, stern voice and a mother to all she met. This was where she earned the 2023 Arkansas School Nurse of the Year award. Nurse Sue was trying her best to fight to get to graduation in 2025.

Sue was blessed to have a close family that loved her and many family members on her daughter's married side adopted her as their own. She is preceded in death by many loving family members, including her parents, Doris and Kenneth Wepprecht. She is survived by her brother, Mark (Mary) Wepprecht and her sister Judy (Rick) Edmondson both of Scottsdale, Arizona. She is also survived by her daughter, Elizabeth (Douglas) Trader and two granddaughters, Natalie and an unborn baby girl of Springfield, Missouri. The light of her life was her granddaughter, Natalie. Sue also has four dear nephews, Kenny, Ricky, Matthew and Michael all of Scottsdale, Arizona.

There will simply never be another Mom. She was kind and caring to all those who met her and absolutely loved her kids at the high school. A Memorial Service will be held on July 12, 2025 at Roller Funeral Home in Mountain Home, Arkansas from 3:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m.

Thank you for being my loving mother and GO BLACKHAWKS!
