August 20, 1946 — October 14, 2020

Madison

Suzanne Lee Gill, age 74, passed away peacefully on Wednesday, October 14, 2020, at home surrounded by family.

She was born August 20, 1946 in Madison, WI; daughter to James and Mary Ellen (Bakken) Tetzlaff. Sue was united in marriage to James R. Gill on December 26, 1964 in Madison. They were married for 55 years and together raised two children.

Sue graduated from Monona Grove High School in 1964. She worked at home taking care of her family for many years. She also worked at Piggly Wiggly where she met Jim, and worked various other jobs, retiring from Hallman Lindsey Paints.

She enjoyed raising her family, visiting the family cabin, which was her heaven on earth, participating in Card Club, bowling, and attending craft shows.

She only lived in two homes her whole life and was very proud of that. Her family meant the world to her. Sue was the rock of the family and remained strong and positive throughout many illnesses. Sue will be deeply missed by her family and friends.

She is survived by her husband Jim, sons David (Sara), Daniel (Kristina) sister in law Lynn Kosinski, brother-in-law Mike (Terri) Gill, grandchildren, great grandchildren, two siblings, many uncles, aunts, cousins, dear friends, and her card club girls of 48 years.
