She was born on October 26, 1938, in Rome, Georgia, to the late Lois Doris Lanham Easterwood and Clarence “Pete” Easterwood. She married Reese Wayne Robertson of Huntland, Tennessee when she was fifteen years old. Reese said, “Marry her young and raise her like you want her.” It worked.

Sue retired from U.S. Army Missile Command Redstone Arsenal. She enjoyed working with Reese in gardening as well as helping to build a house, even learning to finish sheet rock.

Sue was a devoted Christian and a member of Donaldson Grove Baptist Church, where before her health issues she taught a children’s Sunday School Class as well as Vacation Bible School. In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her husband, Reese Robertson; brother, Charles Easterwood; and sister, Mary Alice Sawyer.
