Sue Olinger

Olinger, Sue Marie 4/4/1958 - 10/17/2020 Kalamazoo Sue Marie Olinger, age 62, passed away unexpectedly Saturday, October 17, 2020 in Palm Bay Florida. Sue was born April 4th, 1958 to Harold and Donna (Allworth) Kitsmiller. Sue is survived by her loving husband of 42 years Calvin Olinger, two sons whom she adored, Calvin H. Olinger and Kate Gibson, Nick and wife Vanessa Olinger, her grandchildren who were her pride and joy, Kaiya-Noel Olinger and Bryce Calvin Olinger, sister Nancy and brother-in-law Scott Field, nephew Blair and wife Emily Field, grandniece and grandnephew Dane and Ava Field. Her darling brother Ricky along with her loving Mother preceded her in death. Sue truly lived life to the fullest through the simple pleasures in life. She had a great love and appreciation for nature, the great outdoors, flowers, the beach, sunsets, animals of all kinds, meeting with her cousins for lunch, and of course shopping. Sue had an immensely large heart which she opened to all and nothing gave her more pleasure than giving to others. No words can express how sad we are to lose our beautiful, vibrant Sue. She was a very, very special lady who touched the lives of many and has left a void no one can fill. She will surely be missed by all who knew her. As sad as it will be, in her honor we will do our best to carry on her legacy and live life to the fullest appreciating the things in life that matter the most such as family and friends. A celebration of Sue's life will be held at Friendship Wesleyan Church in Plainwell.
