After a fulfilling career working in Washington County school cafeterias, Sue enjoyed her retirement years surrounded by the love of her family, friends, and her "baby boy", her beloved dog, Brody. Her kind spirit and generous heart touched everyone she met. She was one of the most thoughtful people you could ever meet and never would let a birthday pass by without sending a card to those she knew and loved.

Sue had many hobbies and passions in life. She loved to garden and took pride in her beautiful flowers each year. She could often be found on her back porch with a big glass of sweet tea in her hand admiring her flowers or talking across the fence with her dear friend, Clara. She enjoyed spending her Saturdays going to every yard sale in the surrounding area. She loved listening to Elvis and spending quality time with her family and friends. Sue was known to be a talker and loved to share many entertaining stories with her loved ones.

Most importantly, Sue loved Jesus and her desire for togetherness and unity touched the hearts of so many. She will be deeply missed by her family, friends, and all who had the pleasure of knowing her.

A special thank you to her daughter, Tracy, for her three years of taking such good care of Mom.
