Becker Ritter
Susana Galv?n passed on to eternal life on April 5, 2022 in Wauwatosa, Wisconsin. She was born in Placetas, Cuba on May 8th of 1929 and came to the United States in 1962. After a year in Miami, she and her husband Raul settled in Moline, Illinois where she worked for more than 25 years in Overseas Advertising for Deere and Company. She loved to travel and made trips to the Canary Islands, the Caribbean and Europe.
After her husband's death in 1991, Susana sold the house and started a new life in Southeast Florida where she reunited with many childhood friends and family and provided a home away from home for her son and his family. She was thrilled to welcome friends and family to her condo In Coral Gables. She had a large social circle, attended many fund-raising lunches and drove into her late 80s. Her laugh was infectious and her smile bright, always with her signature red lipstick.
In 2020, in the midst of the Pandemic, she packed up again and returned to the Midwest to be near her family. She leaves behind son Raul, daughter-in-law Becky Rintelmann, granddaughters Sara Schedler (Craig) and Rebecca Galv?n (Richard Monserud) and her beloved great grandkids - Ian and Eloise Schedler and Hudson and Matilda Monserud. The matriarch Susana leaves a gaping hole in the family - she will be sorely missed. A Memorial Mass will be held at St. Augustine Catholic Church, 1400 Miller Road, Coral Gables, FL 33146 on June 17th, 2022 at 1:30PM.
Becker Ritter Funeral Home, 14075 W North Avenue, Brookfield WI 53005 1-262-782-5330
