Brian Keith Suehs, age 61, of Manawa, went to his heavenly home on Tuesday, February 11, 2020 at the Manawa Community Nursing Center surrounded by his loving family. He was born on December 23, 1958 in Iola, son off the late Arthur and Ruth (Johanson) Suehs. Brian attended St. Paul Lutheran Grade School in Manawa and went to Little Wolf High School. He worked at Tomorrow Valley Co-op for many years, then a short time at Faldet Farms, and then at Charter Fuels in Manawa where he built great relationships with his customers.
