Memorial for Susan E. Newstetter
In the May e-Newsletter, PLSO reported on the passing of Sue Newstetter. She was a past President of Blue Mountain Chapter, Board Chairman, and was currently representing the surveying profession on the OSBEELS Board.
A memorial will be held in June at Clyde Holiday State Park followed by an outdoor style pot luck in honor of Sue’s love of outdoor cooking and socializing.
Please send notes about Sue's involvement with PLSO to Pat Gaylord, who will share them with her husband, John. Email Pat here.
