Sue settled in Morro Bay in 1962 where she became a cosmetologist. In 1972 she purchased the Spanish Dolphin restaurant in Cayucos and later opened the Freight Office restaurant just down the street. In the 1980's she became a Real Estate Broker, before she decided then to channel her natural eye for design with her love of antiques. Never one to slow down for the last 20 years she owned Antiques on Main in Cambria with her daughter, Debborah. Sue was active in several volunteer projects and was always willing to give her time in support of a cause. Sue is survived by her husband, Jerry Patchen, her three daughters, Debborah Patchen, Wendy Hill and Robin Brindley. Her sons in law, Michael Hill and Larry Brindley.
