In 2010, Sue and her husband became sole owners of Bob Schoenborn's Jewelry where she continued her career as co-owner, book-keeper and accountant at the store.

Sue was a gracious, compassionate and humble soul whose gentle demeanor touched many hearts. She enjoyed spending time with her husband, family, close friends and their Samoyed dogs. Perennial gardens, annual gardens and landscaping was a true passion of hers. She was an overall nature-lover, had a knack for interior decorating and was a fantastic cook. She was very devoted to her faith. Sue always had an easy smile and only saw the good in others.
