Mrs. Jenny Hartman Luttrell

Jenny Hartman Luttrell passed away Sunday, May 2, 2010 in Shreveport, LA due to complications arising from a fall. She was born October 20, 1928 in New Orleans to the late Ernestine Antoinette Henrietta Haro and Henry William Joseph M. Hartmann. She was the devoted wife of L.T. Luttrell until his death on July 5, 2008. Survivors include four children: Charles R. Luttrell and wife Sharon of Covington, Brenda A. Luttrell and husband Edmund Hansen of Gretna, Thomas E. Luttrell of Kenner and Gloria M. Lockhart and husband Claude of Shreveport; nine grandchildren: Steven Luttrell (Angela), Ricky Luttrell, Barbara Becnel, Jill Williams (Britt), Melissa Luttrell, Allison Lockhart, Valerie Lockhart, Claude Lockhart, Jr. and Natalie Lockhart; and six great-grandchildren. Also survived by siblings Henry Hartman (Jo Ann) of Longview, WA, Althea Bosche of Gonzales, LA, Eleanor Dunlap (Donald) of Round Rock, TX, James Hartman (Dolores) of Metairie, Lawrence Hartman (Margaret) of Covington, Albert Hartman, and Elise Smith of Bay St. Louis, MS; sister-in-law Lois Hartman and numerous nieces, nephews and other relatives. She was preceded in death by siblings Margaret Herrle Orgeron and Stanley Hartman of the New Orleans area and Rose Payne of Cleveland, Ohio. Jenny was a beloved mother, grandmother and great-grandmother. She was devoted to her family and always put the needs of others ahead of her own. She had a keen wit and a kind heart. Above all she enjoyed spending time with family and her friends from the Bible Learner’s Class at First Baptist Church of Kenner. She and L.T. also enjoyed time spent with their friends at the Kenner VFW post. Jenny enjoyed traveling (often with James and Dolores to visit Eleanor and Donald) and her occasional trips to Disney World. She leaves as her legacy the qualities that made her special: compassion, kindness, industriousness, loyalty, perseverance and forgiveness that live on in her descendants.
