Susan was my sister, and my friend. I will always remember everything she did for me and the love she had for her family and friends. She loved her daughter Cici like nothing else and you could tell that she was what made Susan complete. My husband Daniel Vavrik and I will miss her deeply and hope that she has found a new purpose in the afterlife. I know she will be watching over Cici from beyond and we will all be there for Cecilia in life to remind her of her mother and share the stories we have of this great woman. And trust me there are many.

Lisa this is so beautiful. I fondly remember our fun times as cousins playing at your home. Susan was truly our glue as she, even at a young age, would organize our play. She was soooo good at it! Susan is a shining star. Xoxo

Dear Gertie, CiCi and family,
I am so, so sad to learn of Susan's passing. She was a great friend. I will never forget her beautiful, bold personality and her strong convictions for what was right and what was wrong. She was so generous! I feel very lucky to have known her. My thoughts and prayers are with you. I will miss her deeply.

I am saddened to hear of Susan's sudden passing, but I am also encouraged and amazed by Susan's accomplishments and her organized can do attitude. Susan and myself attended Eastwood Collegiate and from high school Susan was a dependable, polite, very well organized young lady that could play a mean trumpet.The best thing I remember was Susan's smile and Susan's ability to befriend you with her gentle voice. To the Frantzke's, I am thinking of all of you, you are in my prayers.

The saying goes," sometimes life isn't fair''. Well in Susan's case, it wasn't fair. Gone far far too soon, her effortless smile, ironclad work ethic, everything about her was to be admired. Suzy, my family and I miss you terribly and will love and think of you always,
Uncle Joe, Aunt Nicki, Mellisa, Joey and Marcy

We recall Susan a dedicated mother, a loving parishioner of Saint Michael, a caring daughter/ grand-daughter, and a compassionate teacher. We give thanks to God for her living, we pray for God's care for Cici and Gerdi, her family and all the students she touched with her compassion.

The 2017 Easter Vigil at Saint Michael Church, Waterloo witnessed the service of Cici, Susan and Gerdi, for this we thank God.

Mrs. Joan, Deacon Philip and Abraham.
