Susie Diane Fultner was born on April 5, 1959 in Maquoketa, Iowa, to Clyde and Arlene (Beaman) Fultner. She was a 1978 graduate of Andrew Community High School. She married Leonard Barnette on July 2, 1981 in Maquoketa, Iowa. Although they were not blessed with children of their own, many called her mom and grandma.

Susie worked different jobs throughout the years. For the past 30 years they owned and operated Barnette Hauling and she worked alongside her husband until she became disabled and was no longer able to help with the route.

Susie enjoyed going to Bingo, visiting with family and friends, adult coloring, and playing games on her phone.
