In 1966 they moved back home to Phillips, Texas to raise their family.

Sue was a loving wife, mother, and homemaker. She always sacrificed her needs for the good of the family. Sue was a member of the Phillips Ladies Golf Association and served on the board where she held several positions over the years. Sue bowled in two leagues at Cedar Lanes Bowling Alley.

Sue was very active in the Borger Elks Lodge #1581 Elkettes for many years. She held several offices and enjoyed decorating the lodge for various events. The last several years, the highlight of her week was to go to the Elks Lodge and play cards every Friday night.

Sue was an accomplished pianist, an excellent seamstress, and an avid reader. She loved playing board games and card games of any kind. She could not be beat at Trivial Pursuit, her knowledge was vast. She was an Atlanta Braves fan and enjoyed watching Dale Murphy.
