Mary Suzann Vescovi

It is with great sadness that the family of Mary Suzann (Sue) Vescovi announces her passing on Saturday, July 13, 2019, at the age of 86 years, following a brief illness. Sue will lovingly be remembered by her husband of 65 years, Ray, and her daughters Lisa (Bruce) Kohl, Ellen (Eric) Mullen, Cindy Vescovi, Jenifer (Scott) Miller; and son, Robert (Kelley) Vescovi; grandchildren, Daniel Kohl, Michael Kohl, Melissa Kohl, Brandon Crane, Chris Crane, Taylor Epley, Rilee Epley, Benjamin McCullough, Saxon Reynolds, and Alexa Miller; great-grandchildren Elle and Mia Crane, Denver and Clementine Reynolds. Sue was born in Evansville on December 8, 1932 to the late Ruth and Ray Richey and was also preceded in death by her brother, Jerry (Marilyn) Richey. Sue attended Sacred Heart School and later graduated from Mater Dei High School in the class of 1950, where she served as Senior Class Vice President and was chosen as the school’s first May Queen. Sue married Raymond Vescovi in December, 1953 and traveled the southeast with her husband who was a professional baseball player. She worked at Hoosier Cardinal in the early years and Internal Medicine once her children were on their own. Sue dedicated a large portion of her life raising her five children. She was a member of Resurrection Catholic Church, the Red Hatters, and the Italian American Social Club. She enjoyed exercise classes, painting, volunteering at church and community events, and catching Spring Training each year. She loved playing cards, golfing, and spending time with her family and large circle of friends. Spending winters in her Bonita Springs, Florida home was her most favorite time of year and the community there will sorely miss her vivaciousness and community involvement. There will be a Mass of Christian Burial held at 10:00 AM on Friday, July 19, 2019 at Resurrection Catholic Church, Rev. Jerry Pratt officiating. Entombment will follow in St. Joseph Cemetery. Friends may visit with the family from 3:00 PM until 7:00 PM Thursday, at Pierre Funeral Home, 2601 W Franklin St, Evansville, IN and from 9:30 AM Friday until service time at the Church Condolences may be made online at www.pierrefuneralhome.com.
