She and Donnie married on August 8, 1957, and she took great pride in raising their five children and keeping a beautiful home.
Suzie enjoyed many years as part of the women’s bowling league. She loved to attend her children’s school and sporting events, and as her children grew and got married, she adored traveling and spending time with them and her grandchildren. She found joy in reading, decorating, planting flowers, creating fresh flower arrangements, and spending time with friends and family.
