Marilyn Didway Obituary
She was born on Whidbey Island August 19, 1939, the daughter of Kenneth Hingston and Maggie Heller. When her widowed mother remarried, the family moved to Sedro-Woolley and later to Burlington. Sue graduated from Burlington-Edison High School, a proud member of the Class of 1957.
Sue had an accomplished 26-year career at Skagit Valley Hospital, where she worked as an Accredited Medical Record Technician and Certified Medical Staff Coordinator. In her later years, she continued to serve her community by working part-time and volunteering with Skagit Home Health and Hospice.
Sue is survived by her husband, Bill; her sons, Tim Lowrimore and David Moore, their families; her beloved grandchildren, Mason, Griffin, Maddie Moore; stepdaughter, Carmen Lyon, her family; her brothers, David and Jim Hingston, and their families.
She was preceded in death by her sister, Charlene Guidinger; her brother, Howard James; and her stepdaughter, Lavisa Corvo.
Sue requested no formal service. Memorials in her honor may be made to the Modine Endowment Fund, c/o Soroptimist International of Sedro-Woolley, P.O. Box 249, Sedro-Woolley, WA 98284, in support of single mothers pursuing further education. Share your memories of Sue and sign the online guest register at www.lemleychapel.com.

I will warmly remember Sue for the rest of my days. She was thoughtful, smart, elegant, talented, non-judgemental, and beautiful. Above all, she was a good friend. I'm sorry we didn't see each other often in recent years, but she never failed to send birthday and Christmas cards! Rest in peace, dear Sue. Your earthly presence will be missed. My heartfelt condolences to Bill, Tim, Dave, Carmen, all her grandchildren, David and Jim Hingston, and their families. Sincerely, Evelyn Edeen
