Margo Elizabeth (Beyrle) Gerber, 69, of Wichita, Kansas, passed away peacefully on July 14, 2026, surrounded by the love of her family.
Born on October 19, 1956, in Wichita, Kansas, Margo was the beloved daughter of Joseph and Doris Beyrle. She was preceded in death by her husband, Lee William Gerber; her parents; and her brother, Stan Beyrle.
She is survived by her children, Dacy Suellentrop, Brett Gerber, and Ryan (Kristy) Gerber; her beloved grandchildren, Lauren and Nolan Suellentrop, Brynlee and Lola Gerber, and Lillian, Landon, Greyson, and Aiden Gerber; her brother, Steve (Joyce) Beyrle; her sister, Brenda Harris; along with many nieces, nephews, extended family members, and treasured friends.
Margo retired from INTRUST Bank after many years of dedicated service, but her greatest work was the love and care she poured into her family and friends.
At the center of Margo’s life was her family. She was the heart of every gathering and the biggest cheerleader for her children and grandchildren. She rarely missed a sporting event, school program, concert, or activity and loved every opportunity to support them. Whether she was volunteering at church or school, helping her grandchildren with their chores, or making a special trip to deliver something forgotten, she was always there with a smile and a willing heart.
Margo had an incredible gift for making people feel welcome. She never met a stranger and built lasting friendships throughout her life, from her high school years to the friendships she formed through her children and their activities. Those who knew Margo also knew her love of leopard print - a reflection of her fun personality and the joy she brought wherever she went.
She found joy in the simple things—working in her yard, soaking up the sunshine by the pool, and enjoying trips to the casino to play the penny slots.
Margo will be remembered for her generous heart, unwavering support, and the unconditional love she gave so freely. Her legacy is one of showing up for others, loving deeply, and finding joy in life’s everyday moments. Her impact will live on in all who were fortunate enough to know her.
