Her date of death should be in that widow's pension file. Someone would have notified the state of TX when she died to stop her pension benefits. Have you sent for that widow's pension application? When and where she married the veteran should be in there. She would have to prove she was married to a veteran to receive a widow's pension.

I see he also applied for a pension. That should give his date of death.

I'm guessing Sue was a second and younger wife. Note Andrew does not have a wife in 1880

1880 census Lamar Co, TX:

Category: Name; Relationship to head of household; Marital Status; Gender; Race; Age; Birthplace; Occupation; Father's Birthplace; Mother's Birthplace.

A. P. MARR Self M Male W 49 KY Farmer VA VA
S. F. MARR Dau S Female W 19 MO Keeping House KY KY
W. P. MARR Son S Male W 14 TX At Home KY KY
J. R. MARR Son S Male W 12 TX KY KY
E. A. MARR Dau S Female W 9 TX KY KY

If in deed Sue is a younger woman, this might be her in 1880 census Bowie Co, TX:

B. T. ESTES Self M Male W 48 TN District Judge VA VA
Jesse A. ESTES Wife M Female W 44 TN Keeping House NC NC
Jesse H. ESTES Son S Male W 15 AL Going To School TN TN
Sue D. ESTES Dau S Female W 12 TX Going To School TN TN
Wm. Lee ESTES Son S Male W 10 TX Going To School TN TN
Nellie ESTES Dau S Female W 8 TX Going To School TN TN
Amanda REECE Other S Female W 21 MO --- ---
J. J. J. FARRELL Other W Male W 50 SC Clerk In Butcher Shop VA VA
