She loved her hometown of Lititz and lived her entire 83 years of life there. Sue and her husband “Jim” celebrated over 60 years of marriage and were a beautiful example of unconditional love to their family. Sue was affectionately known as “Gammy” by her family and friends! She trusted Jesus throughout her life and faithfully attended Calvary Church in Lancaster. Her husband Jim, children, grandchildren and great grandchildren were her greatest joy. She created a warm and welcoming home where her family and friends could gather. Some of her best memories were family vacations to the beach, lake and especially Aruba. She had a kind and generous heart, always willing to share her time and resources to help others. Because of her fun-loving personality, she never met a stranger, as she talked with everyone she encountered. She enjoyed many years as a Mary Kay consultant and loved helping women feel beautiful.
