Suzanne Marie Wilson, age 52, passed away peacefully at home on January 28, 2013. She was born on August 6, 1960 to her parents Robert and Rose Wilson of Manteca. She attended Nile Garden Elementary School and Manteca High School, where she participated in 4-H, FFA, and athletics. Suzanne graduated from Cal Poly San Luis Obispo with Bachelors degree in Agricultural Science. She devoted her career at the USDA as a loan specialist. When she wasn’t working, she enjoyed family gatherings, spending time with her beloved pets, gardening, and collecting antiques.

    She is preceded in death by her father, Robert L. Wilson. She is survived by her mother Rose Wilson, as well as her brother, Rick Wilson and his wife Larissa Wilson. She is also survived by her sister Robin Wilson. She was a loving aunt to four nieces and one nephew, Jesyca Perez, Robbi Wilson, Kayci Perez, Lucy Wilson, and Carly Wilson. Auntie Suzie thought the world of her nieces and nephew and loved them as her own. She was passionate about many things in life, but closest to her heart was her family, especially her mother, Rose. Her two dogs, Sydney and Kadie and her cat, Max, provided her great joy in life and kept her company at her home in Escalon. She enjoyed spending time with her many dear friends or baking sweets for her neighbors around the holidays. Suzanne will be forever missed by her family and loved ones.
