I worked with Sue at Watkins Nursing Home in Winona. We became very close friends during that time. I cared for her son for one summer as well. When Sue became ill I remember how deeply saddened I was for her and her family. She was a very good nurse and as mentioned by her sister in law she could also be a great friend outside of work too. Despite the fact that she was our supervisor and our superior she was always friendly to the staff and a true patient advocate. I am thankful for the time that I got to know Sue and am very blessed because of it. God rest her soul and may she finally be at her eternal peace after all of these years of illness and trials. May God be with Sue and her family at this time of loss. Rest in peace Sue, you will be missed. With love, Michelle Pomeroy RN

I worked with Sue at the Watkins Home in Winona, MN. She was a very dedicated nurse and co-worker who was fun to work with. My thoughts are with her friends and family at this time.

My earliest memory as a child was being the ring bearer in Sue Ann's wedding in Mt. Pulaski. I remember her taking me to Decatur to get fitted for my tux. She was a wonderful person and will be greatly missed. Our condolences to Bob, Ruth and all the Cline family. Deron and Kristi Powell, Mt. Pulaski

Sue was the best there was. She was my sister in law. She was smart, she was funny, she was a brilliant person. People looked up to her when on the job and she could be their friend off the job as well. She is going to be missed by so many people whose lives she touched and she touched many. From all her nurse friends at Winona Manor they shed many tears for her. She will never be forgotten
