During which time, she developed many longtime friends who still stayed in contact with each other for many years.  After graduation, Sue joined the Army where she served in Vietnam as a Medical-Surgical Nurse for three years and held rank as First Lieutenant.

Sue has worked over 30 years in many capacities as a nurse, including a Medical/Surgical Nurse at Phoenix Veteran’s Hospital and Prescott Medical Center, in Arizona.  Sue has always been a fantastic oil and watercolor painter and decided to obtain her Art Degree from Hasting College.
