She graduated from Quakertown Community High School and Northampton Community College. In addition to her school experiences, she took dance, drum instruction and computer courses. As a techie, she discovered the internet and met people from around the world. She met her future husband Tom as a result of a Jimi Hendrix discussion at hippie.com. Their friendship blossomed and they married on August 23, 2003. In May 2021, Sue was diagnosed with inflammatory breast cancer and began a 3 year battle. She was determined to keep living her life, and in August 2023, she and Tom fulfilled a life-long dream as they visited the Woodstock site and museum. She lost her battle, but never gave up smiling and finding joy and courage every day. Her family wishes to thank all the doctors, nurses, caregivers, family and friends for all their support and encouragement.
