Marilyn Sue Ferguson Faultless went to be with her Lord and Savior on August 27, 2026. Sue was born in Doans, Indiana, on April 25, 1942. She was a cherished mother, grandmother, sister, and friend, and her presence will be deeply missed.
Sue is survived by her children, Richard (Ellen) Faultless of Bloomington, John Cabot Faultless of Bloomfield, Scott (Jana) Faultless of Greenfield, and Sylvia (Brent) Faultless Reece of Bloomington; nine grandchildren, Mykel, Alyson, Mailee, Madalyn, Brinne, Emily, Chase, Kaitlyn, and Nate. Six great-grandchildren.
She is also survived by her sisters, Ida Bouvier of Bloomington, Jean Medlock of Salem, and Evelyn Flater of Colorado Springs, as well as many nieces and nephews.
Sue was preceded in death by her parents, Frank and Irene (Courtney) Ferguson; her brother, James Ferguson; her sisters, Maxine Ferguson, Wilma Bundy, and Edna Williams; and ex-husband, Ronnie Faultless.
She attended Scotland and Bloomfield High Schools. She worked at General Electric in Bloomington Plant Operations for 30+ years, and on the family farm in Calvertville, Indiana.
Sue enjoyed gardening and canned enough vegetables to feed her family. Her family loved her big Thanksgiving and Christmas meals, along with her homemade rolls, pies, and fruit trays. She cherished family gatherings, where she could visit with loved ones and enjoy homemade ice cream.
Sue was deeply involved in her church communities throughout her life, attending Scotland Methodist as a child, Concord General Baptist as an adult, and Bloomington Free Methodist in her later years. She enjoyed singing in the choir, participating in Bible study and the prayer team, and staying active with her faith fitness group. Sue was also a member of the Nightingale singing group, bringing joy to residents in local nursing homes.
The family thanks the staff at Hearthstone Health Campus and Heart to Heart Hospice for their compassionate care.
