Wanda Sue Jennings

July 14, 1964 — June 13, 2023

Wanda Sue Jennings, 58, of Nickelsville, VA, passed away on Tuesday, June 13, 2023.
Sue was born and raised in southwest Virginia, where she lived her whole life. She was married to Harold Jennings for thirty seven years, and the couple had two children, Stephanie and Michael. Sue was a certified nursing assistant for over twenty-five years. Sue took pride in caring for her patients, and she was often referred to as "Momma Sue" by her patients and co-workers. At the time of her passing, Momma Sue was employed by Encompass Health of Kingsport, TN. She was also employed by J&P Market in the Nickelsville community for several years. Sue was a very hard worker. Even in times of sickness, she persevered. What she enjoyed most was being "Mamaw" to Thorin, Clayton, and Tucker. She loved her grandboys. They were the twinkle in her eye and she never missed an opportunity to see them. Often times before or after working a twelve hour night shift, she would rush home to care for her babies. Sue was selfless, caring and loving. She loved her friends and family fiercely. Sue was a devoted member of Gate City United Pentecostal Church.
