Susan Figgins, beloved wife, mother, Nanna, and friend to many, went home to be with our Lord on Sunday, January 24th, 2021. Susan was born on November 15th, 1954 in Dallas, Texas to parents Roland and Billie Wyatt, both of whom preceded her in death. Susan loved Mickey Mouse, cruising, shopping (she never met a pearl she didn’t like) and shooting snakes in the pond at the cabin. Most of all, she loved spending time with her family and freinds. Susan is survived by her loving husband of 30 years, Wes; daughter Jennifer Oliver & husband Jason; son James Bufford & wife Katie; son Matthew Bufford & wife Megan; and son Jonathan Figgins. She was also blessed with 10 grandchildren who were the light of her life: Trey, Katie, Michael, Alyssa, Jake, Kate, Keira, Lilly, Haylie and James. The love and light she brought to so many lives will be cherished always and never forgotten. Susan will be missed beyond words and will always be in our hearts. Join us for a Celebration of Susan’s life, Saturday, February 6th, 2021 at 1pm. Lone Star Cowboy Church 543 FM 6 Nevada, Texas 75173

Susan will be greatly missed! The world is a little empty with out her. It was a privilege to know her contagious smile, joy and energy! My deepest condolences to Wes and the family!
We are so very sorry! Our love is with all of you ♥️♥️♥️
Susan, the best friend I ever had, was more than that. She was another sister to me. We could always be totally honest with each other. She consoled me in my sadness & rejoiced with me in happy times . Suzy had a big heart and loved her family so much.And we prayed for each other many times over the years during struggles. I will miss you immensely Suzy.
Friends for 53 years…her smile, perky personality, concern for others and sweet heart will be sorely missed! She was one in a million! Prayers, love and hugs for this sweet family in the coming days.

There will never be a Honey Bee that visits our yard, or a gorgeous Flower I see blooming, that I won’t think of Sweet Suzy💗 Suzy was the Bee Keeper of our neighborhood. She was loved by so many & her Spirit will live with us forever. We will speak her name often and talk about all of the fun we had on many Halloween’s & sharing many laughs & stories for 30+ years. Suzy always surprised us with her homemade Christmas Candy and, our family couldn’t wait for that knock on the door, to see Wes’s smiling face with Suzy’s Homemade Treats In hand! Suzy is truly Unforgettable. and we love her dearly. Much Love & Friendship, John & Martha Myers
Words cannot express what Susan meant to so many. She had an amazing contagious energy that glowed around her. You could never figure out who was her favorite child or grand child because they were all her favorites in different ways. She was an amazing persons and we are all so blessed to have her in our lives.
Until we meet again please keep watch over us we still need your help!!
Susan was one of a kind! We went to John Ireland, hood and Samuel together! Played in the streets as kids on Devon circle! My deepest sympathy to Wes and the whole family! She will certainly be missed!
Susan was a childhood friend. We had a lot of fun times as we grew up. Our lives would take there separate paths as we became adults but she is a big part of my memories of a great life growing up. I will miss her but am thankful for her being a part of my life. My thoughts and prayers are with her family and friends, especially her sweet Wes. God bless you .
Wes & Family, there are no words that could ever express or explain the grief & pain that you all are having right now :-(( Susan was a BEAUTIFUL SOUL!! who never met a stranger! One of the most loving & caring people anyone could ever meet!! She had an infectious smile and a warm heart! Just know, she WON the battle! NO MORE PAIN!! for she IS resting in the arms of our Sweet Savior! We will see her on the other side one day! God bless the love, life & legacy of Susan Figgins
You all, are in my deepest & heartfelt prayers…
With Love & Hugs,

I met Susan one time very briefly but I felt like I knew her already! It was after I had the opportunity to cut Wes hair for the first time. We cut his hair with Susan in mind he said “she won’t like it to short”. I know he loved her because he couldn’t stop talking about her, their children or their grands! When you can get a man to come into the shop and instead of talking sports or politics he can’t stop talking about how much he loves his wife and how long they’ve been together one thing is for certain she is one special lady! I’m sorry for the loss of such a wonderful wife, mother, grandmother and friend! I pray that the Spirit of God comforts everyone that she has left behind and give you strength in this time of grief! Our sister is not gone but is asleep and will be with us again at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ who in Him is Life and the Resurrection! Amen
WOW!!! Mr. Minnieweather! you said it all, (tears in my eyes) bec. I have NEVER met a couple that loved like these two have!!! SO RARE!! like a Gem!! Wes truly loves her like Christ loves the church! You’re SO RIGHT! she’s asleep!! #Life & #Resurrection
Your kind words blessed me, thank you sir! God Bless You!
Taken too soon, but what a Homecoming she must be having!
There are no words that will ease the pain of the loss of your lovely Susan – wife, mother, grandmother. She will always be loved and missed. I love you all, Aunt Melba

I did not know Susan personally, but I could see the absolute love and adoration on Wes’s face when he spoke of his Suzy. I pray for healing with this family, and hope that they find some measure of comfort in the knowledge that she is in a place where there is only love and light, and pain no longer exists.
So happy I could call Susan a friend for 60 years . Will miss her ! Dennis Worthy ,
Susan’s ray of sunshine has left us to shine even brighter from heaven. She will be missed by many. Prayers for strength and comfort for family and friedms
Wes and family, my deepest condolences and sympathy for your loss. Susan, you will be missed!
Wes, even though it is difficult, now is the time to celebrate her life and all the joy she brought to you and your family. Talking about the wonderful experiences and stories really helped me when I lost Lynn and I hope it will be the same for you. It’s the stories and remembrances and the laughter that will see you through as well as your faith in God. I continue to keep you and ;your family in my prayers during this stressful time. I love you and am so glad to call you friend. What little I knew of Susan she was a bright light in your life. I could see it in your face every time you talked about her. What a wonderful blessing she was and will continue to be to you and your family.
Bless you family. The loss of Susan is so terribly sad. I went to school with her many years but became closer friends later in life. She was fun and full of life. So caring. I’ll never forget her. Ever!
I didn’t meet Susan personally, but we talked through Wes on the phone. I think we would have been really good friends. Wes and family, I am so sorry for your loss. From all I’ve heard she was a bright light to everyone she knew.
Y’all are in my prayers and heart.
It is with great sorrow to saw goodbye to a child hood friend. You will be deeply missed. I love you very much. It will not be the same to go to the Fair without you. RIP sweet Susan.

I am so very sorry for the loss of this beautiful lady. Rest in Peace
🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 Prayers being said.
Dear cousin Wes, I am so sorry Susan has left this world. I know you will miss her until you are joined again. I was thinking about your recent losses. It hasn’t been long since your dad passed. I am so glad you have family and friends to comfort you and that you know God loves you. God will carry you.
Sending love.

Susan and Wes were a real team. We never thought of them in separate terms. They were always doing for others. Always ready to help out – in many instances without being asked. They drove 200 miles one way to help with m elderly mom’s birthday and to say goodbye to her as well. Those occasions would not have been the same without them.
Every year, you could expect to run into Susan and Wes at the Texas State Fair – you would compare notes and laughs, then separate until you ran into them again!
We will miss Susan.
Susan and I were friends since elementary school. We grew up in the same neighborhood and attended the same schools in grades 1 to 12. Susan had a very sweet nature and we had a lot of fun together. We reconnected in recent years and I got to know Wes too. My heartfelt sympathy goes out to Wes, Susan’s family, and all of her other friends for comfort. May Susan’s gentle soul rest in peace.
Susan will be missed and cherished in my heart. May God comfort you and your family in this time of sorrow.
Wes and Family, so sorry for the loss of your beautiful wife! Our Family has you in our prayers and thoughts.🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼❤️
I didn’t know Susan well, but I vividly remember seeing the two of you together while I was at 7-Eleven. You always beamed about your family and I know that she was the light of your life. My heart is heavy for you Wes. My sincerest condolences to you and your family. To be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord. Know and trust that God will be your anchor in the days to come.
It was such a blessing to work with Susan. We had a great conversation at the end of the year. My sincerest condolences to Wes and the family. She will truly be missed. Soar with the angels sweet lady.
WOW! The heavenly realm has gained a new Angel, your Suzy is now supporting wings filled with beautiful jewels, I can just see her sitting at the feet of JESUS! Continued prayers my sweet friend! You are loved!!❤️
Heaven is rejoicing, an angel has come home. Prayers for Wes and all of Susan’s beautiful family. We love you.
I have so many great memories of growing up with Susan! She was so fun and kind!
Wes,
My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family at this time. May our Lord give you strength and peace during this most difficult of periods.
Wes and family – Susan always knew how to bring a smile to my face. She was such a bright ray of sunshine who will be missed by all who had the pleasure of meeting her. We love you Wes and will be praying for you guys!
