Her litany: "Born in Salem, Virginia, raised in Roanoke, attended college in Lynchburg, married to John A. Haynes and spent 21 years in Alexandria, and then got to Texas as fast as I could!"

Sue was diagnosed with pulmonary fibrosis in July of 2017 at Scott & White Hillcrest Hospital in Waco. She was later moved to Kindred Hospital Ft. Worth Southwest, for rehabilitation until her discharge in November, 2017. Her final move was to The Forum, an Assisted Living facility in Dallas. This allowed her family easy access to help with doctor appointments and other needs. Her motto was: "It is what it is and God and I will handle it!"
