About SusieO
Susie Oberdahlhoff lives on a working farm along with her husband Richard. They raise hogs, cattle, and hay on their acreage located in the rural area near Bowling Green, Missouri. They are parents of two children, Melaney and Rick, and grandparents to Taylor and Tanner.
Susie's career has taken her to a broad range of agriculture organizations including working for the Missouri Beef Industry Council, Missouri Soybean Merchandising Council, and Norman Robert Marketing & Communications. In addition, she has done contract work for the United Soybean Board, Missouri State Fair and Missouri Department of Agriculture.
One of her favorite community service volunteer activities is serving on the Pike County Health Department Home Care and Hospice board, now in her 10th year and currently serving as chair of that board. Susie is also a hospice volunteer giving many hours to hospice patients and their families.
When Susie isn't sharing her wit and wisdom with audiences across the country, you may find her doing one or more of the following activities - perhaps at the same time: sitting with hospice patients, picking up her grandaughter at school, mowing the yard, going to pig and steer shows, baking cookies, recording church minutes, sending cards, chasing cows, picking up tractor parts, hunting antiques, paying bills, giving shots to pigs, going to health board meetings, checking in on her kids, reading to grandson, hunting for her black shoes, cooking for two....or ten, ordering cattle feed, planting flowers, getting her hair cut and of course....housework!!!
It's no surprise that her motto is: "If You Rest, You Rot!"
