Susanne Marie Kacsandi 1954-2022

WEST MECCA — Susanne Marie Kacsandi went to be with her Jesus peacefully Wednesday, Feb. 9, 2022, at home, with her beloved family by her side.

Susanne was born May 2, 1954, in Norfolk, Va., the daughter of Steve and Mary Jean Schuler of Youngstown.

Susanne was a 1972 graduate of Austintown Fitch High School. She graduated in 1975 from St. Elizabeth School of Nursing as a registered nurse. After many years of dedicated work as an RN, she went on to earn her BSN from Kent State University in 2015, graduating summa cum laude.

In addition to birthing six children of her own, Susanne helped to deliver hundreds of babies, working as a nurse, midwife and doula.

She was an accomplished musician and author.

She gave everything she had to her family everyday going above and beyond to share Jesus with everyone she met.

She is survived by her husband, Lou Kacsandi, whom she married Nov. 6, 1982; and her six children, Louis (Daniela), Allison (Salvatore) Gulino, Hallie (Evan) Winkofsky, Brian (Caiti), Matthew (Tori) and Elyse Kacsandi; as well as six grandchildren.

By her request, cremation has taken place, and there will be no funeral. Private family services are being planned for a later date.

“Susanne — you were always an angel, but now you have wings.”
