Sue was a devoted mother and grandmother who loved her Lord, her family, her church family and her friends. She was happiest when she was outside working in her flowers and sharing them with others. She was a long-time member of Crossroads Church of Christ and had a strong faith and influence that could be seen in the lives of all who knew and loved her. She will truly be missed.
