Sue was a current employee of the Bedford Area School District where she worked as the Guidance Office Secretary at Bedford High School.  Previously she had worked at the Bedford County Technical Center, New Enterprise Stone and Lime, and several printing jobs in both Pittsburgh, PA and Cumberland, MD.  

Sue was a proud supporter and active volunteer for the Boy Scouts of America Troop 4481, the Fort Bedford District of Laurel Highlands Council, National Youth Leadership Training (NYLT), and the Allohak Menewi Lodge of the Order of the Arrow.  With Troop 4481 she most recently served as the Advancement Chair, and had previously been the Cub Scout Den Leader for both Will and Sam.  As a member of the Fort Bedford District she served as the District Commissioner and had attained her Doctorate of Commissioner Science in the Boy Scouts of America Commissioner College.  Over the last few years she had volunteered heavily with the NYLT program and assisted on camp staff for this event.  As a member of Allohak Menewi she became a Vigil member given the Lenni Lenape name of Gahowes Wojauwe translating to “Mother of the Chief,” and served as the Assistant Chapter Advisor for the Nimat Wachtschu chapter of the Lodge.
