Sue was born on January 25, 1951 to Benjamin and Virginia Roten (Bolinger) and was raised in Mill City, Oregon. She had called St. Marys home since the Navy brought the family to the area in 1987. She had a strong faith and was actively involved in the St. Francis of Assisi Catholic community on base. She also celebrated Mass at Our Lady Star of the Sea in St. Marys and St. Francis in Folkston. She was outgoing and never met a stranger.  She enjoyed Zumba, being with friends, and cherished her time with family. She adored children and loved being a grandma and great-grandma. So much so, that she lovingly accepted that title from many kids at Church and in town.

She is survived by her children, Tina Frank (Eric) of Jesup, Georgia, Aimee Donahue (Jim) of Kingsland, Jessie Durbin of St. Marys, and Jonathan Durbin (Dana) of Hilliard, Florida; grandchildren, Michael, Anthony, Ashly, Chito, Morgan, Kimberlin, Abby, Robert and Faith; great-grandchildren, Kaleb, Daniel, Lucas, Cole, and Benjamin; brothers, Johnny Roten (Glenda) of Gates, Oregon and Floyd "Freddy" Roten of Arizona; and numerous nieces, nephews, cousins, family and friends who all love and will miss her dearly. In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her husband, Jesse Durbin, her sister, Delsie Harris, and her brother, Bennie Lee "Red" Roten.
