Suzanne was a very talented seamstress who made her children's clothing, Halloween costumes, Christmas stockings, and countless other items. She also enjoyed sewing for others, creating crafts to decorate her home as well as to take to craft shows. She altered clothing, including numerous prom and wedding dresses and even a dress for a Miss Oklahoma! She also loved gardening, and enjoyed baking and cooking dinner for her family. She enjoyed attending Nascar races at Texas Motor Speedway, Indy and Brickyard races, in Indianapolis, as well as OU Football games in Norman, OK.
