Gloria "Dee" Barrett

Gloria "Dee" Barrett, beloved mother, sister, aunt, and friend, passed away peacefully on Thursday, October 10, 2024, at the age of 93. Born on April 8, 1931, in Frontenac, Kansas, Dee was the cherished daughter of Howard Moats and Zena Hosier (Minor). Dee was raised by father Howard and grandmother, Sarah Ellen Moats who she loved dearly.

Dee worked as a Checker at Warehouse Market in Okmulgee for many years but her greatest joy came from the love she had for her son Aaron. He meant so much to her and as she loved and cared for him throughout his life. She also shared many memories and with her late husband, Henry Barrett, the love of her life.

Dee is preceded in death by her father, Howard Moats; her mother, Zena Moats; grandmother Sarah Ellen Moats, her siblings, Jerry Moats, Hollis Moats, Lois West, Patsy Henderson, and Claudia Waltrip; and her husband, Henry Barrett.

She leaves behind a legacy of love and fond memories, particularly with her son, Aaron Lee Peters; her sister, Phyllis Wells; and a host of nieces, nephews and loving relatives and friends who will cherish her memory forever.

A Graveside Service will be held in her honor on Friday, October 18, 2024, at 1:00 PM at the Westlawn Cemetery in Henryetta, Oklahoma, with her great-nephew, Pastor Justin Wells, officiating.
