Sue was born September 25, 1939 to the late Armin & Linda (Kube) Britzke in Watertown, WI. She grew up on the family farm in Jefferson County, attended the local grade school, and graduated from Fort Atkinson Senior High.
She married Charles A. Peterson on September 20, 1958 at St. Pauls Lutheran Church in Fort Atkinson, WI.
Sue was a former member of the Stevens Point Jaycettes and a long time member of St. Paul Lutheran Church and their Alter Guild. Sue loved arranging & giving flowers, in addition to planting flower gardens, bird watching, and chocolate. In her spare time she enjoyed camping, boating, baking, sewing, shopping, collecting angels, playing cards with her card club, traveling, and attending the EAA Airshows. She loved helping people such as volunteering her time at the Portage County Aging & Disability Resource Center. Sue cherished her family and spending time with them, especially her grandchildren. They were the "light of her eyes" & "could do no wrong".
She was a loving wife, mother, grandmother, and dear friend. Her sense of humor & contagious laughter will live on in our hearts forever....
