TAHLEQUAH -- Graveside services for Sue Yount, age 66, will be held at 10 a.m. on Wednesday, June 2, 2010, at Park Hill Cemetery. Services have been entrusted to the care of the Hart Funeral Home of Tahlequah.
Sue Yount was born Sept. 26, 1943, in Wagoner to Louie and Elsie Torix. She spent most of her childhood and teen years in Fort Gibson.
Sue worked as a beautician in Muskogee before marrying the love of her life, Ronald Yount, on Dec. 24, 1961, at her grandmother Hazel's home in Fort Gibson. Sue and Ron moved several times early on before settling down in Keys, America, where she lived the remainder of her years.
Sue was a seamstress, cake decorator, floral designer, and anything else she set her mind to, but her biggest accomplishment was being a wife and mother. Her favorite hobby was spoiling her grandchildren.
Sue Yount departed this life on Sunday, May 30, 2010, at her home in Keys at the age of 66 years. Preceding her in death are her parents, Louie and Elsie Torix of Zeb, and one brother, Louie Austin Torix of Zeb.
Sue is survived by her husband, Ron, of the home; one son, Ronnie Yount and wife Sherry of Keys; one sister, Deborah Scott of Zeb; one granddaughter, Lyndsey Scott and husband Billy of Keys; one grandson, Tanner Yount; several aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews and friends.
In lieu of flowers, the family requests that donations be made to the St. Jude Children's Hospital, P.O. Box 1000, Dept. 142, Memphis, Tenn., 38148.
