Savannah, Texas
Susan (Stinson) Field died Sept. 12, 2022, in Denton, Texas, following a short illness. She was born on Dec. 6, 1959, to Ilene (Bunker) and Calvin L. Stinson Jr. as the first of five children.
Sue graduated from Sumner Memorial High School in East Sullivan, Class of 1979, and went on to receive a degree in accounting from Thomas College in Waterville.
In 1995, Sue married George E. Field. The couple explored life in several areas of the United States after their marriage, finally settling in the Dallas, Texas, area, where they recently celebrated their 27th anniversary.
Sue had numerous interests and hobbies that kept her busy. She was an avid poet, composing original verse for homemade greeting cards and social media. She delighted in all kinds of crafting and was a talented seamstress and knitter. Perhaps nothing gave her more joy than working with a local dog rescue organization in Texas. She lovingly helped numerous animals over the years, providing them with affection and compassion while nursing them back to health.
