Loretta was born to Grady Wade and Ora Belle (French) Harrison. On November 2, 1956, she married Louis Plumlee in Clovis, New Mexico. The two settled in Tuttle, Oklahoma, where they raised three children. On August 8, 1981, Louis lost his battle with brain cancer. Loretta worked in healthcare for many years. She drove from Tuttle to Oklahoma City daily to help her mother with her in-home nursing home. As a nurse aide, Loretta went to school to become a L.P.N. at the age of 48, taking Muff (Amy) with her to classes at Oklahoma City Community College. Loretta’s career began at Tuttle Care Center. There was not a position there that she didn’t fill at one time or another. She always just did whatever needed to be done. Loretta started work as a CNA and went on to be a CMA, LPN, Activities/Social Services Director, Assistant Administrator and Administrator. Her service to Tuttle Care Center spanned over 21 years. She retired in 1998 for a short time. She went back to work as an Administrator working at several homes “cleaning them up”. She would say, “They hate to see me coming!” She retired as an Administrator at the age of 82 in February of 2014. She enjoyed retirement very much. It gave her a lot more time to spend with her family, especially her grand, great grand, and great great grandchildren. She was always ready to go shopping or out to eat with her sister and brother-in-law, “Tilly and John Brown.” Also, she loved being driven to Walmart and the beauty shop by her niece, Becky. She was very thankful to her niece Barbie for taking care of “the girls” Rebel and Cricket when she was away. Loretta Virginia Plumlee was the matriarch of this family. She will be incredibly missed by more than just her own family. Loretta raised many others putting them through school, and giving them a place to call home. She often packed up and went to ball games, sitting right behind home plate telling the umpires and coaches how things should be. People in town often asked her how many grandchildren she had. They would say, “Every kid in town calls you grandma.” Loretta took great pride and pleasure in being able to help raise Amy Lynn and Ginger Ann.
