Life story

Dec. 24, 1952 ~ Oct. 22, 2022

Susan Whitney Weidauer, beloved wife, mother, grandmother, sister, aunt and friend, was tragically taken from her loved ones while vacationing with Doug in Missouri on October 22, 2022.

Susan graduated from LDS Business College, worked in law offices and was a paralegal before a successful career serving the City of Sandy for over 31 years, beginning as the Prosecuting Coordinator, starting the Justice Court system and retiring as Justice Court Judge in December 2012. Susan married Douglas A. Weidauer, the absolute love of her life, March 24, 1972 and their marriage was solemnized in the Jordan River Temple on March 13, 1993.

Doug and Sue were blessed with two beautiful sons, John and Michael, while working and going to school to further their education.

Upon retirement, Sue and Doug moved from Riverton to Fillmore, Utah to the cabin they built with their own two hands. Sue loved spending time with her family and friends, quilting (serving as the past president of her local quilt guild), crafting, and always looked forward to monthly gatherings with her sisters.

Sue is survived by her husband, Douglas Arnold Weidauer, her children John Weidauer (Jenny) and Michael Weidauer, and her eight grandchildren: Aubrey Prinz, Whitney Weidauer, Alexander Weidauer, Caden Weidauer, McKenna Weidauer, Samantha Weidauer, Will Weidauer, and Cole Weidauer. Also survived by siblings: Edward D. Whitney, Jr., William T. Whitney, Pat Nelson, Dena Hansen, Melissa Guseman, Jan Burnell and Trudy Dalton.

Preceded in death by her parents, Edward Dalton Whitney and Fern Nunn Whitney and Doug's parents, Arnold and Maxine Weidauer.
