Susan Elaine Wild

Susan Elaine Wild, 71, of Navarre, OH, passed away June 29, 2026.

Sue was born on May 3, 1955 in Cleveland, OH. She spent most of her adult life in the living in the Cleveland area, but later moved to Massillon in 2014, followed by moving to Navarre in 2021. Sue worked at WLS Stamping Company (Cleveland, OH), as a Punch Press Operator for 20+ years. This is where she met her husband, Larry, who set up the presses she worked on. For 30 years, Sue and Larry made many memories of long country drives and camping vacations. Sue was affectionately known as, “Ellie Mae”, due to her love and kindness toward all animals, big or small. Sue will be incredibly missed by all who knew her.

Sue leaves behind her loving husband Larry Richards, and her two adoring sons, Bradley Wild (Cassie) and Ernie “Jimbo” Wild Jr. (Samantha); and many grandchildren. She will also be missed by her sister Sharon Simcic, five step-children and a host of nieces, nephews and friends.

She is preceded in death by her parents, Bob Jones and Geneva Pryer; her late husband Ernie Wild Sr.; daughter Sabrina Stein; and sister Pam Jobo.

Per Sue’s request, cremation has taken place. Memorial services in her honor will be announced at a later date.
