Susan Jane Moseng, beloved wife, mother and grandmother, was born on August 21, 1940 in Alban Township, Grant County, Milbank, South Dakota.  She was the daughter of Andrew and Ferne (Dotson) Wagner.  She was baptized and confirmed at the American Lutheran Church in Milbank, South Dakota.  She went to grade school at Alban #6 and graduated from Milbank High School in 1958.

On April 11, 1964 she was united in marriage to Russell Moseng from Dawson, MN at the Methodist Church in Montevideo, MN and to this union 4 children were born: Jodi, Brent, Jamie and Randy.  After they were married, they lived on a farm in Baxter Township outside of Dawson.  In the fall of 2002, Russ and Sue moved into a quaint home in Dawson and made it their forever home filled full of love and laughter with their family.

Susan loved to garden, all flowers were her favorites, she was proud of her garden and yard and her and Russ worked hard to keep them pristine.  She was also known for her amazing cooking and baking skills, and was proud to make treats of pies, cookies, cakes, breads, and bars to sell at the local farmers market.  She loved to make her special arrangements of treats at Christmas time for others as well as her family.  Sue  was a talented seamstress, loved a great find at a garage sale, collector of vintage glassware, and took pride in decorating her house and yard at holiday time, especially Christmas.  She had a strong work ethic and a very kind and loving heart.
