She was also blessed with great-grandchildren: Ashlyn Smith; Chance, Morgan, and Molly Carr; Brody, Charlotte, and Joey Walker; and Greyson and Guy Romero, who brought her immense joy in her later years.

Sue's life was marked by her strong work ethic, serving as a bookkeeper for various organizations, including Redd Pest Control, Cothrian and Pittman Law firm, and the State Employment Security Commission. Her professional endeavors were complemented by her passionate commitment to her community.

She volunteered her time reading to children at Barr School and delivering meals on wheels, always seeking ways to uplift those around her. Her love for playing bridge with friends provided her with joy and camaraderie throughout her life.

Despite the challenges she faced, including the heartbreaking loss of her son, Craig Hamilton Morgan, and her beloved husband, Donald, as well as her brothers Wesley and Art Kersh, Sue's spirit remained indomitable. Her capacity to love and forgive, to cherish each moment, and to inspire those around her was a testament to her character.
