Suzy Bates, beloved mother, grandmother and great grandmother passed away on 9/26/19 at the age of 85 at Rocky Hollow Lakehouse in Georgetown. She was born Amy Sue Vaughan in Lubbock, daughter to Howard and Frances Vaughan. Despite declining physical limitations caused by a 12-year battle with a brain aneurysm, she continued to amaze us with her vitality.
She got Bachelor and Masters degrees from Sul Ross University, anda Library Science degree from Texas Women’s University. She taught in the Texas public school system for 30+ years, which took her to Comstock, Marfa, Alpine, Grapevine, Taylor and Elm Mott. She then retired from teaching and moved to her childhood hometown Liberty Hill, where she got her real estate license and practiced for 15 years. Also, she blossomed as a community activist.
She was proud to be an American and even more proud to be a Texan. She was always delighted to share her knowledge and expertise in the many areas in which she was gifted. She was passionate about helping people.
Suzy is pre-deceased by her parents, sister Mary Ann Vaughan, and grand-daughters Lisa and Stefanie Adams. She is survived by sister Louise Marcom and husband Bert Marcom; daughters Davida Jones (and husband Mike Jones) and Debbie Bates; three grandsons Jacob Jones, Andy Jones and Brian Adams; and one great-grandson Grey Jones.
Funeral services will be Monday 9/30/19 at 3pm at the Cross Tracks Church, 101 Church Street in Liberty Hill, with a graveside service to follow at the Liberty Hill Cemetery. Those attending are requested to wear her favorite colors: red, white and blue (or just red).
Family extends it most grateful thanks to the loving and caring staff at Rocky Hollow Lakehouse and at Wesleyan Assisted Living. Those wishing to do so may make a donation in her name to Liberty Hill Foundation Park, Liberty Hill Over the Hill Gang, or Liberty Hill Cross Tracks Church.
