When Susan was just 6 weeks old her family flew to Greys River and lived that first winter at Deadman. In May 1943 they moved onto their own land later known as the Box Y and lived in a wall tent while finishing their cabin. By that fall the cabin was complete and they got to move in. In 1944 the family lived at the Box Y Ranch year-round. The family also purchased a home in Afton WY in 1946 so their girls could attend school. Susan graduated Star Valley High School in 1961 and later that summer married Larry Izatt Walker. The couple was married at the Box Y Lodge. The young couple then moved to Fort Lewis in Tacoma WA as Larry was in the National Guard.
