She continued to live at home on the farm until January, 2019, with the help of Jane and Monte Pesek and their children and grandchildren until her declining health required moving from the farm into Bethel Lutheran Nursing Home. She enjoyed her time at Bethel playing bingo and taking in the various programs held there along with allowing someone else to take care of her and cook for her.

She also enjoyed sewing, knitting, quilting, and other craft projects. Luetta was a member of the Trinity Lutheran Church in Alexander and participated in the community until health prevented it.

The last two Christmas?s were highlights for her. She loved seeing the little ones carry on.Surviving Luetta is her son, Todd (Kristi); grandchildren, Emily (Bo) Garner; Gavin (fiancé, Katy): great grandchildren, Christian, Liliana, and Jackson; and brothers, Duane (Trudy) and Verdine and a sister, JoAnn (Burt) Quam.
