Susan Lynn Karbginsky

My beloved Susan Lynn Karbginsky, my wife of 38 years, my best friend, and the love of my life, peacefully departed to be with our Lord on March 8th, 2025. Today, we gather to celebrate her beautiful life and the profound impact she had on all of us.

Susan and I first met in 1983, and from that moment, our lives became intertwined in a dance of love, companionship, and shared dreams. For over four decades, she was my constant, my rock, and my guiding light.

Susan was a woman of immense kindness and compassion. Her good heart knew no bounds, extending not just to the people around her, but to all of God's creatures. Her love for animals was a testament to her gentle spirit and nurturing nature.

As an artist, Susan saw beauty in the world that others often overlooked. Her creativity was a gift she shared generously, bringing color and joy to our lives and the lives of those around us. Her artistic talents were not just confined to ceramics; she painted our life together with vibrant strokes of love, laughter, and unwavering support.

Susan was more than just my wife; she was my best friend. We shared countless moments of joy, weathered storms together, and found comfort in each other's presence. Her wisdom, her humor, and her unconditional love made every day brighter.

To say that Susan was a wonderful wife would be an understatement. She was the heart of our home, the keeper of our memories, and the source of endless love and support. Her patience, her understanding, and her unwavering commitment to our marriage were the foundations upon which we built our life together. As we bid farewell to Susan, we take comfort in knowing that she is now at peace with our Lord. Her legacy of love, kindness, and creativity will live on through all of us who were fortunate enough to know her.

Susan Lynn Karbginsky, born on July 24, 1955, and was called home on March 8, 2025, you will be missed more than words can express. I loved you with all my heart, and I will carry you in my heart until we meet again. Rest in peace, my love. Your husband and friend, Dale

As we bid farewell to Susan, we take comfort in knowing that she is now at peace with our Lord. Her legacy of love, kindness, and creativity will live on through all of us who were fortunate enough to know her.
