A very strong woman of faith that was Fun, loving, caring and very hospitable that was always willing to help anyone in need.
She loved being involved in Children’s Ministry playing the part of a woman named “grandma Jones,” for numerous years at Grace Baptist Church in LaPorte, pouring out love and teaching children about Jesus. Sue enjoyed writing poetry and songs. Her music is even registered at the library of Congress. Sue’s poetry was published many times in the Pilot Newspaper.
