Sue Elaine Denney

Sue Elaine (Tucker) Denney, age 93, passed away on July 8, 2026. She was born on May 18, 1933, in Clarksville, Tennessee, to the late C.E. Tucker and Geneva Brown Tucker.

Sue was married to the late Dudley Denney, and together they made their home on the family farm, where she lived for 77 years. She was an exceptional cook who loved welcoming family and friends into her home for a meal. She also took great pride in decorating her home, creating a warm and inviting place for those she loved.

During their younger years, Sue and Dudley enjoyed taking motorcycle trips with family and friends, making many cherished memories along the way. She worked at Schrader Automotive Products and later co-owned Classic Cleaners.

Above all else, Sue's greatest joy came from spending time with her grandchildren and great-grandchildren. Their visits brought her endless happiness and filled her heart with love. Though she will be deeply missed, her family finds comfort in knowing she is now at peace and free from pain.
