Suzanne Summers Zimmerle of Fallbrook, California went to Heaven to be with Jesus on December 21, 2017. She was born on April 10, 1938 in Charleston, Illinois. Her father died after WWII in a car crash and her mother worked in Chicago during WWII. Suzanne's Grandmother played a great role in the life of Suzanne and her sister, Mary Lou.

After birth Suzanne was picked to attend the grade school attached to Eastern Illinois University in Charleston, Illinois. She loved her fellow classmates as most of them were childhood friends and they shared the same school for 12 years.

She was a student, a cheerleader and a fan of sports; especially football and baseball. She was life long and die-hard Chicago Cubs and Chicago Bears fan. She was so overjoyed to be able to watch both of her teams win World Championships!! She was selected the first member of Job's Daughter Queen for Charleston and her sister was picked #3.

Suzanne met her husband to be, Harvey Zimmerle, at college while both attended Eastern Illinois University in Charleston. She became a military wife in the Marine Corps for 28 years, 6 months and 9 days. She handled all those duties of wife, mom and at times dad with a grace, composure, strength and love without measure. She even received a medal for her volunteer service.

She loved to travel and make new friends. She supported the St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. She settled with the family in Fallbrook, California with her husband, Harvey, her 3 sons, Steven, Michael and Patrick and 2 Granddaughters; Faith and Brooke Zimmerle.

The Memorial Service will be held January 16, 2018 at 11:00am at Berry-Bell and Hall Mortuary in Fallbrook, California.
