Carol Sue Nuzum, 75, of Sioux City, passed away Wednesday, March 14, 2018, at a Sioux City hospital following a lengthy illness.

Abiding by Carol’s wishes, the body will be cremated. Memorial services will be 7 p.m. today at Nelson-Berger Northside Chapel, 822 Jennings St., in Sioux City. Visitation with the family will be 6 p.m. until service time today at the funeral home. The family requests that you wear something yellow to the service as that was Carol's favorite color.

Carol was born on Sept. 2, 1942, in Ute, Iowa, the daughter of Howard and Beatrice (Coate) Nuzum. Carol grew up in the Moorhead, Iowa area and attended school in Moorhead. Carol worked at Metz Baking Company for several years and then did demos at various retail stores.

Carol enjoyed cooking and baking, which she loved sharing with her family. Carol Sue was full of spunk, young-spirited with a witty sense of humor. After a short conversation with Carol, you felt like you'd known her forever. She touched the hearts of everyone she met.

Survivors include her two children, Michael Nuzum (Terrie), and Michelle Rohlk, both of Sioux City; seven brothers and sisters, Allan Nuzum (Joyce), Jack Nuzum (Shirley), Barbara Hargroves, Dale Nuzum, Joyce Williams (Gary), Pat Johnson (Ronald) and Diane Thiesen (Larry); five grandchildren, Brianna Witzka (Jeff), Calvin Rohlk (Katelyn) Nicole Nuzum, McKenna Nuzum and Amber Nuzum; and five great-grandchildren.

Carol was preceded in death by her parents; and nine brothers and sisters.
