Sue was born at St. Mary's Hospital in Rochester, on October 17, 1947 to Archie and Dorothy. Archie was an electrician at Kodak Park and Dorothy was a homemaker. Sue's brother, Bob enjoyed time together. Sue's greatest "secret" was the time Bob ran over her legs with his "Doodle-bug." He told her to Hold On! Sue was involved in 4-H, girl scouts, and she loved the accordion. During her young adult years, Sue loved music, played in musicals in high school. She enjoyed golf, bowling and was a radio announcer in Utica (Julie Jones), EMT on Spencerport Ambulance for many years.
Sue completed a 2yr. degree in Advertising. She traveled throughout the US recruiting college students for Kodak. Nascar was a favorite of Sue's. After retirement she worked as a home health aide until suffering a stroke in 1995. In recent years, Sue enjoyed her many train trips to Utica to visit David. Sue's love was her family and her little 4-legged friends, her mother, brother, nieces and nephews, aunts and cousins. They will all remember Christmas Eve at Sue's house eating her delicious lasagna and singing the 12 days of Christmas.
Friends and Family would best describe Sue as very creative, she would always come up with a poem for the occasion. She wrote the Eulogy for many family funerals.
