Cook of the Week

Sue Hite

When Sue Hite came to Brownsboro four years ago, it was to be closer to her family, a move enunciated by the knowledge that there are over three generations of the family in town.

Hite's grandmother, Clessie Warren, lives here under the care provided by Sue and Sue's parents, Leroy and Reba Gullett. But this is only three generations of Sue's family!

David and Sue Hite have two sons, Jon and Michael Parker. Michael lives in Brownsboro, and between Jon and Michael's families, Sue said, they have given her three grandchildren; two more generations.

Tyler RAM Sales and Services is where Sue works, the company performs commercial roof and floor coating.

"Anyone with commercial roofing or floor coating needs, call us for a quote," Hite said.

Sue also said she enjoys boating with David, or just relaxing at their resort at the Villages with the kids.

Also an animal lover, a variety of animal life can be found at Sue's place. Dogs, cats, horses, miniature horses and longhorns, Sue said, are critters she loves spending time with.

"I'd like to share a personal love," Sue said. "There are forgotten elderly people around us who still need our love, hugs, or just a kind word.

The Chandler Nursing Home, Sue added, is the place to go for anyone who needs to be uplifted.

Sue decided to share a cookie recipe she thought is also uplifting, the treat being low in fat and calories, yet still flavorful.
