Susan worked as a hygienist for five years then transitioned to General Manager at Answer Missouri. She excelled in the new position, working her way up to Vice-President, until her retirement in 2012. She was an open, kind, and inquisitive person. She took an interest in everyone she met, and cherished time with her family. Sue and Pat shared a love of all living things. Especially dear to her were her boxers (but she really loved all dogs, animals, and plants). They also shared a loved of traveling, and spending time together working on their home.
