Obituary

Sep 15, 2012

CA, USA, Susan Prohaska Stull Houghton Feb. 15, 1947 - Aug. 16, 2012 Resident of Livermore Sue Stull passed away peacefully at home, with her husband at her side, on Thursday, August 16 after a short battle with pancreatic cancer. She was 65. Sue was born in Chicago, IL. She grew up in Elgin, IL where she graduated from Larkin High School, and then went on to receive her BS degree from Northwestern University in 1969 with a major in Teaching and a minor in Speech. After teaching in Barrington, IL, she married Edward Stull and continued teaching in China Lake, CA. When she and Ed moved to Livermore in 1979, she stayed home to raise their two young sons. Ed died from injuries suffered in a 1980 auto accident. Soon after the accident Sue joined the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory as a technical writer and editor. During her quarter century career at LLNL Sue worked on the Laboratory's flagship publications. Many of these publications won national awards for excellence. In 1994, after a long courtship, Sue married John Houghton, a fellow Laboratory employee. She retired in 2004. Sue is survived by her loving husband, John, of Livermore; her mother, Elaine Prohaska, of San Ramon; her son Peter, and his wife, Erin, and granddaughters Gracelyn and Joyanna of Arvada, CO; and her son, Michael and his wife Toni and grandson Seth of Albuquerque, NM. Sue enjoyed life. Her favorite activities included reading, gardening, golf, skiing, canoeing, traveling, and photography, particularly of wild flowers. She was an accomplished photographer and was called on to judge local photography shows. Above all, Sue cherished spending time with her family and friends. Private family services are pending. Memorial donations may be made to the Yosemite Conservancy, 155 Montgomery Street, Suite 1104, San Francisco, CA 94104.
