Madison – Susan Julie (Sinykin) Anderson, age 73, passed away at St. Mary’s Hospital on May 8, 2021. Sue was born in Madison on June 5, 1947. She was preceded in death by her parents, Gordon and Dorothy (Edelstein) Sinykin. She is survived by her twin brother Philip (Joan) Sinykin, older brother Daniel (Sheri) Sinykin and a niece and nephews. She was joined in marriage to Steve Anderson on November 14, 1970 and they had one son Jason whom she loved dearly along with his two sons Nolan and Austin.
Sue graduated from West High School in 1965 and from UW Eau Claire in 1970. She worked for the State of Wisconsin in computer and systems security, retiring in 2005 after 30 years of service.
For most of her adult life she pursued her love of training her dogs for Championship, Rally and Obedience titles. Her 40 plus years of certificates, ribbons, and rosettes for Schaali, Bebe, Bang, Indy, Pacer, Ling, Cheers, Toot and Jigger are numerous. She was active for many years in the Badger Kennel Club and is well known at the UW Veterinary School of Medicine.
Growing up you could find her and her family figure skating at the Wagon Wheel and in her 20’s she had a part time job for the City of Madison teaching young skaters how to ‘Shoot the Duck’. She was a fan of figure skating throughout her life.
During the week Sue enjoyed watching the different Eagle cams found around the world and on the weekends taking in a golf tournament on TV.
