Duretta was a loving mom, wife and grandmother for more than 64years. She devoted her life to raising her daughters while finding time for tennis and antique shopping with her husband, Bob Up until the day she passed, she loved her weekly bridge games with her friends. The day before she left us;she was mostly concerned about who would fill in for her at bridge on Wednesday!
Duretta had a passion for life! She enjoyed traveling overseas and visiting her girls, shopping, lunching and did these things while always looking her very best! Duretta had a witty, quick sense of humor and always kept us all on our toes. There won’t be a day that goes by that we won’t think about her, miss her, and truly cherish all of the wonderful love and memories she gave to us!!
Durettais survived by her four daughters, six grandchildren and five great-grandchildren. Rest in peace “sweet baby Dret”! We love you and will be toasting to you always!
