Suzanne "Suzy" Schulz

Suzanne “Suzy” Lynn Schulz, age 57, of Wausau, passed away on Saturday, April 16, 2022, at the UW Madison Hospital.

She was born on August 7, 1964, daughter of Sally (Seefeld) Graap and the late Harvey Graap.  On April 8, 1996, she married Lon Schulz in Merrill.  He survives.

Suzy loved animals and flowers – especially spending time on her deck and in her flower garden.  She was a great baker and an excellent pool shot.  Her favorite thing was spending time shopping and going to lunch with her daughter Lynn, who was her best friend.  She enjoyed spending her time with her granddaughter, Olivia who she homeschooled.  She treasured time spent with her grandson Dylan helping her in the garden or doing puzzles together. One highlight for Suzy was travelling to Las Vegas with her husband.  She held a record for the Merrill ice drag racing for the first woman to go over 120 mph for many years.  Although Suzy was in a wheelchair for over 30 years, she was always there for others.  She was thoughtful and caring and will be greatly missed.

Survivors include her mom, Sally Graap of Wausau; husband, Lon “Slinky” Schulz of Wausau; one daughter who was her best friend and nurse, Lynn Biskup of Wausau; two grandchildren, Dylan Hull and Olivia Biskup; siblings, Linda Jackson of Merrill, Danny Graap of Janesville, and Brad Graap of Appleton; nieces and nephews, Gavin, Megan, Jenny, Savannah, Josh, Sheena, Miah, Devon and Jesse.

She was preceded in death by her father, Harvey Graap and stepmother, Cathy.

Memorial service will be held at 11:30 A.M. on Saturday, April 30, 2022, at Helke Funeral Home, 302 Spruce St. Wausau.  Visitation will be from 10:00 A.M. until the time of service.
