Susan Marie (Weldon) Wimsatt

Susan Marie (Weldon) Wimsatt, aged 80, of Borden, Indiana, passed away peacefully on Friday, May 15, 2026. Born on May 18, 1946, in Olean, New York, Susan was the daughter of Robert Weldon, Sr. and Cristeen (Carpenter) Weldon Hunter. In addition to her parents, Susan was preceded in death by her siblings, Robert Weldon, Jr., Carol Hunt, Sandra Herron, Nancy Bale, and her grandson, Sean Patrick Wimsatt.

Throughout her life, Susan was deeply committed to her community and family. She began her professional career as a school bus driver and contributed her talents to the Callistus Smith Insurance Agency. However, it was at Floyd Memorial where she truly left her mark, dedicating 26 years to the hospital. There, she managed the scheduling of surgeries with care and precision, earning the affectionate nickname “Scheduler Sue” from her colleagues.

Susan’s faith was central to her life. As a longtime and devoted member of Shepherd of the Hills Lutheran Church, she served in various ministries, enriching the lives of all she touched. She generously volunteered her time preparing food boxes at Grace Lutheran, demonstrating her compassionate spirit beyond the walls of her church. Additionally, Susan maintained an active lifestyle through her participation in the Silver Sneakers program at Anytime Fitness in Floyds Knobs, embracing each opportunity to nurture her well-being and community connections.

Susan is survived by her devoted husband of over 62 years, James "Mike" Wimsatt, Sr., who stood by her side throughout their life together. She is also lovingly remembered by her children: James Wimsatt, Jr. and his wife Michele; Keith Wimsatt; Dawn Freimuth and her husband Tim; and Richie Wimsatt and his wife Evelyn. Her family further extends through her sister, Donna Shireman, and a remarkable legacy of 16 grandchildren and 21 great-grandchildren who were the pride and joy of her life.
