In 1970, Sue married the love of her life, Max Stayrook. They celebrated 50 years of marriage this past January. Their marriage brought her two stepdaughters, Susie (John) and Doris (Bob), and on stepson, Jess.
Sue retired from the county of San Diego after 28 years, where she worked as Superior Court Clerk. In 2004, Sue and Max moved to Bountiful, Utah where they resided for 10 years.

She was artistic and had amazing sewing, cake decorating, painting and cooking skills.
Along with her beloved husband and children, she will be deeply missed by her 13 grandchildren and 22 great-grandchildren who affectionately referred to her as “Nana.” We are all better people for knowing her. Her example gave us a strong foundation upon which to grow. We are so grateful the Lord made us a family.
The family would like to thank Torrie from Sun Tree Hospice for genuine love, support, and guidance. She was our angel of the moment. In lieu of flowers, please donate to Susan G. Koman Foundation fight for Breast Cancer.
