Seanne Marie West, 59, of Sperry, passed away peacefully Wednesday, July 10, 2024 at the University of Iowa Hospital in Iowa City surrounded by her family. Born on Nov. 12, 1964, she was the daughter of James C. Hausner and Janet A. Bell. Seanne was a graduate of Danville High School. She married Kirk Loeffler and of this union they had a daughter; they later divorced. Seanne later married Frederick C. West Jr. and of this union two daughters were born; they divorced. For the last 31 years Seanne has spent her life happily with her husband, Walter D. West, gaining two bonus daughters.
Seanne enjoyed working outdoors caring for her garden and yard; her home was her pride and joy. Seanne spent many summers camping with Wally and her children. For 14 years Seanne spent winters in Everglades City, Florida as the beach was a happy place for her. She didn’t know a stranger and was often teased by Wally for smiling in public because they could never get out of a public place as she would end up talking to people, whether she knew them or not. Seanne loved her children, bonus children, and grandchildren more than life itself. Her favorite times were gatherings with all of her grandchildren together at once. Seanne and Wally lived in Sperry, Iowa in their little heaven on Earth, with their dog, Jack; kittens, Bo and Luke; and most recent addition of chickens. Seanne wanted chickens for a long time, and just like every other dream she had, Wally made that happen for her.
Seanne was preceded in death by her mother, Janet (Robert) Bell; father, James Hausner; maternal grandparents, George and Margaret Besco; and paternal grandparents, Alonzo and Madeline Hausner. She is survived by her husband, Walter of Sperry; dog, Jack; children, Jamie (Daniel) Pringle of Keota, Heidi (Cole) Musselman of Mediapolis, Kayla Harkless of Keosauqua, Whitney (Dan) Kinney of West Burlington, and Kaysie (Gabe) Burden of New London; grandchildren, Chloe, Skyler, and Aiden Pringle; Kaylee and Karter Calvin; Brantley Musselman; Bucannon and Logan Harkless; and Ava and Ari Kinney.
According to her wishes, her body has been cremated and a family Celebration of Life will be held at a later date. Elliott Chapel, New London, is assisting the family.
