She was a member of a large family including parents, Rodney and Joan, brothers, Mark, Christopher, Jonathan and sister Lisa. She was the proud aunt to eight nieces and nephews and 4 great nieces and nephews. She ran her father's engineering firm for more than 25 years. Sue Helped others including Special Olympics and purchasing food for the homeless. Positive and humorous stories include: playing on hte frosh football team, playing elf at the local hospital and church on Christmas Eve, and one family trip to Yosemite when bears invaded our area and we all jumped into the car and found we were one short, Susan thought we were joking with her and stayed in her sleeping bag. As Susan weakened her neighbors helped with her gardens. Several of Susan's loves included Rick's Burritos, the Pittsburg Steelers, Kosher dill pickles and her wonder cat Bosco. Burial will be private. Memorial Service TBA.
