Seija Bax (Suter)

Suter, Seija 7/12/1942 - 11/20/2019 Green Valley, AZ

Seija Bax Suter 77 Green Valley, AZ Wednesday 11/20/2019 Seija was born in the Netherlands and immigrated to Kalamazoo, MI in 1956 with her family. She graduated from Kalamazoo Cental and Parsons Business School and worked at WMU as an administrative Assistant until her retirement. Putting her organizational skills to use, she then assisted her husband (a retired Vicksburg Schools teacher) in writing and publishing 2 series of programmed math learning guides. They were later published by McGraw Hill/Contemporary Books. They were snowbirds in Costa Rica for 5 years, then decided to settle in Green Valley full time in 1998. Seija easily made many friends with her kind and caring nature. She will be missed by her family and friends, including her beloved hummingbirds and Sophie, her "shared" dog. Preceding her in death are her husband of 41 years, Allan Suter, her parents Jan and An Bax, and her two brothers John Bax and Peter Bax. Seija is survived by her sister Gertie Bax Visel, and a sister in law Margaret Johnson (Hank). Also surviving are a special niece Nancy (Mike) Holka, and several nieces and nephews. Per Seija's request, there will be no service. Any memory donations may be made to Hospice Care of Green Valley, or your local animal shelter
