Sue was born in Fort Benton, MT to William and Shirley (Myers) Clark on May 24, 1957.  She grew up on the farm at the Goosebill and attended Penzer Country School until 5th grade, then attended Chester School for one year.  She continued her education in Fort Benton, graduating in 1975.

On October 27, 1979, she married Larry Cline at the United Methodist Church in Fort Benton.  They traveled many places together, among them Hawaii and Cabo; operated the farm, and raised and loved countless animals.  In the later years, they traveled to many basketball and softball games, wrestling and swim meets to support their nieces and nephews in all of their activities. Sue also enjoyed golfing, bowling and darts. Most of all she enjoyed spending time with family and friends.

Sue began her long career in insurance first working for Farm Bureau Insurance in Fort Benton.  She eventually specialized in crop insurance working with a long-time friend John McIntosh.  She did everything possible for her clients to make sure they were well taken care of.  Growing up on the farm, she developed a love for the land and you could see that from how hard she worked on her garden and flowers.

Sue is preceded in death by her parents; grandparents, Walter and Ruby Myers, Nels Clark, Gladys and Olaf Olson; and father-in-law and mother-in-law, Lloyd and Ella Mae Cline.

Sue is survived by her husband, Larry; brothers, Richard (Diane) of Tempe, AZ, Steven (Tanya) of Reed Point, MT, Ronald (Tina) of Claremore, OK, and Wayne (Debra) of Carter, MT; plus numerous nieces and nephews.
