Karen Sue DeWulf was born Aug. 8, 1958, in Davenport, a daughter of Donald Ralph and Shirley Anne (Lage) DeWulf.
Prior to her retirement she had been an administrative assistant for Arconic, formerly known as ALCOA.
Suz enjoyed playing softball, volleyball, skiing, and was a fashionista. She could be the life of the party and her unique belly laugh will be deeply missed. She was the best gift giver, and they were always wrapped perfectly.
Those left to honor her memory include her son Andy (Jon) Allen of Edina, Minn., and their children, Gavin and Beau; Andy’s sister Hannah (Garret) Boswell, and their son Colton of Bunnell, Fla.; siblings Irene (Roger) Schneckloth of Davenport, Gina (Bryan Purdy) DeWulf of Eldridge, Mark (Christine) DeWulf of Long Grove, Jill DeWulf of Eldridge, Richard (Suzanne) DeWulf of Inverness, Ill.; many loving aunts, uncles, nieces and nephews; and her beloved dog “Annie.”
She was preceded in death by her parents, infant sister Lori, and brother-in-law Ernie Meyer.
