Sue Stamper “Susie” Reynolds was born August 7, 1926, in Alice, Texas, to Harry Newton Stamper and Margaret Daniel Stamper. She grew up in Houston and graduated from Lamar High School and Baylor University. She was married to Joe Hunter Reynolds fro 62 years when he predeceased her on December 18, 2009. Joe and Susie had been married on July 14, 1947, at Houston’s South Main Baptist Church. A proud native Texan, Susie died on April 12, 2021 in her home at the Tradition in Houston.
Susie was a proud member of both the Daughters of the Republic of Texas and the Daughters of the American Revolution. Susie and Joe were members of Second Baptist Church in Houston, where Joe taught their Sunday School Class, named “Nothing but the Truth” and later “The Gospel truth” Class. Susie and Joe felt that the class was like their “church in the wildwood” and shared a special bond with all its members. Their life message was from Romans 1:16: “I am not ashamed of the Gospel of Christ.”
She was a loving mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother, and is survived by her sons Hunt Reynolds of Kerrville and Dan Reynolds and wife Nancy of Brenham; daughter in law Laura Reynolds of San Antonio; grandchildren Jennifer Reynolds McEwan and husband John of Austin, Clay Reynolds and Danielle Reynolds of Brenham, and Lisa White and husband Kent of San Antonio. She is also survived by great grandchildren William McEwan and Charles Ewan of Austin, Bryson Reynolds and Hadley Reynolds of Brenham, and Campbell White and Kaden White of San Antonio.
