They had one precious son whom they loved with all their hearts, Scotty Harrison. Johnny Ray and Sue were married for 41 blissful years until Johnny's passing in 2006. Sue loved taking vacations, cooking and singing. She always kept a tidy house, as she also loved to clean. Sue had two grandchildren and four great grandchildren that she loved unconditionally and was absolutely sure that they hung the moon. Her nieces and nephews were also very close to her heart.
