Susan Berg Milder

Susan Frances Milder, age 67, longtime resident of the Austin area, passed away on August 16, 2011. She was born May 11, 1944 in Nashville, Tennessee and adopted that November by Herbert and Anne (Markowitz) Berg in Brooklyn, New York. She met Allan Milder in 1959 and they were married on January 29, 1966 in Queens, NY.

Sue graduated from Madison High School in Brooklyn, Class of 1962. She worked as a secretary, recruiter and legal assistant during her career. She was a member of O.R.T., C.A.P.A., and Hadassah.

One of her most treasured achievements was a hole-in-one, made at Balcones Country Club in 1991. Sue and Allan retired to Georgetown in 2007.
