S. Blaise’s Story

Site created on January 18, 2021

Welcome to our CaringBridge website honoring and remembering the life of Suzanne "Suzy" Louise Kallish AKA "Blaise".    Blaise died unexpectedly and quietly in her home that she shared with her boyfriend,  Rich Kleinfelter,  on Tuesday, January 12, 2021.   In addition to Rich, Blaise is survived by her son Jacob Kallish (23), daughter Jaycie Kallish (19), mother Louise Berger and brother Joe Berger.  We are using caring bridge to inform  family and friends of her sudden departure and to provide a forum for those who wish to share stories, thoughts or comments about Blaise in one place.    

Please scroll to the right on the purple bar above to the "Well Wishes" section to leave your comments, upload photos and share your stories.  There's also a  GoFundMe page under the "Ways to Help" section where we will gather donations to honor Blaise.  We appreciate your support and words of hope and encouragement. 

Per her wishes, Blaise will be cremated and a gathering is pending.  Please keep checking back for details.

Thank you for visiting.

Friends and Family, There will be no formal gathering planned by the family.  A small ceremony is being considered on Lake Wynonah (Auburn, PA) and separately at Westminster Cemetery (Bala Cynwyd, PA) to distribute ashes this Spring.  Thank you for your understanding and support.

A memorial donation in Suzanne “Blaise” Kallish’s name of $2,500 total will be split between Berks Family Guidance Center and Opportunity House.  

Berks Family Guidance Center provides evaluation, diagnosis, mental health, and drug and alcohol counseling on a sliding fee scale to families in need.
