My family just heard about Sue's passing. We are so saddened by this news. I hadn't seen Sue since I was a kid but she was always to sweetest person. My mom and her loved to get together and chit chat. My sister & I were best friends with Doug growing up. We will pray for Sue's family during this difficult time.

Thoughts can not express the sorrow in our hearts for the entire family right now but the Love that this family has will pull us through this, Aunt Sue is at peace and had a Blessed Life and Left many blessed memories, She always had a smile on her face, you never seen her without her hair and beautiful Face done, she cooked and baked her heart out and it was always wonderful. If you ever needed something Aunt Sue would do her best to help you out, I never knew her to say "no" 'unless' it was something she really felt that it was uneeded. Then "if" she said yes you bet your bottom dollar you would get a strong leture about it. But ya know it was well worth it. It was one that made ya think before you went forward. You will be missed by all, but we all know that you were greeted at the gates by our Lord and Loved ones that departed before us, and you are preparing a place for us when our time to arrive comes upon us. until that date We Love you and will miss you Dearly. Todd, Doug, Dale, Grandmother, Wilma, Paula, Kay, Jimmy, Billie We Love you.

To all the family my deepest sympathy to all of you. Sue had a spark for life and loved you all so much. So much of her joy came from telling stories at work about the weekends and the huge family dinners and games you all had. I truely enjoyed working for her and knowing her. all of you are in my prayers. She will be missed by alot of people but leaves such wonderful loving memories. may God help ease the pain of losing such a great giving person.

I'm so very, very sorry for your loss. I became friends with Sue when I worked at Parkfield Inn and I enjoyed working with her, but most of all I grew to love her as a friend. I missed seeing her when we moved back to ND, but we kept in touch and I enjoyed visiting with her. She will be missed by so many, my sympathy goes out to her children, her family and to Dale. Parkfield Inn will never be the same without Sue at the helm, she was a unique person, happy, friendly, and she cared about people. I will miss talking to her, but most of all I will miss her as a friend. Rest in peace Sue, go on Eagles wings to your heavenly reward. You will be missed here on earth, but we have the promise to see her again. God bless.
