Jannettee Sue Stratton-Dreadfulwater

Born on February 4, 1957, in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, Jannettee grew up in Wynnewood, Oklahoma, where she graduated from high school in 1975. She was a bit of a diva in her younger days, known for her blue eyes with blue mascara, and sass. This spark remained with her throughout her life, making her a beloved and memorable figure to all who knew her. She was a strong spirited person who will always remind anyone that she drove herself out of Walmart on a scooter while having a heart attack.

On May 11, 1992, Jannettee married the love of her life, Edward Lee Dreadfulwater, in Miami, Oklahoma. Together, they shared many incredible years, filled with love, laughter, and music. Edward was a talented musician, and Jannettee would often follow him to his music gigs, where he'd play multiple instruments and sing in the band. She was his biggest fan, and he was hers.

Jannettee had a passion for collecting unique trinkets and treasures, including China, a Precious moments collection, Native American art, coins, and boxed toys. She was also an avid penny slots gamer and enjoyed spending time at the casino.

Jannettee loved nothing more than spending quality time with her loyal canine companions, Puppy Dog and Chewy, were also constant sources of joy and comfort. She had a special bond with Puppy Dog, with whom she'd share a glass of Mountain Dew.

Jannettee was deeply proud of her Indian heritage and cherished her roots in the Native American community. Her cultural identity was an integral part of who she was, and she honored her ancestors through her love of traditional Native American art, music, and customs.

Jannettee's love for animals was unparalleled. She had a special place in her heart for her furry friends, and her backyard was a testament to this love. She had created a pet cemetery, where she laid to rest her beloved pets who had passed on before her. It was her wish to be reunited with them, and she will be laid to rest alongside her loyal companions.

Jannettee was a straight shooter, always keeping it real and speaking her mind. While she may have been blunt at times, her loved ones knew that her heart was always in the right place. She was a homebody who valued her alone time, but she also cherished her friendships and loved connecting with her friends over the phone for some gossip. These conversations were always accompanied by her trusty cigarettes, which she couldn't imagine living without.

After Edward's passing, Jannettee continued to live life on her own terms, always staying true to herself and her values. She will be deeply missed by her loved ones, who will cherish the memories they made with her.

Jannettee is home now with her beloved husband, Edward Lee Dreadfulwater; her grandparents; her parents, Jack Tommy Stratton and Geraldine Rebecca (Holt) Stratton; her brothers, Jerry Stratton and Jackie Stratton; and her many fur babies. In accordance with her wishes, will be scattered in her backyard pet cemetery surrounded by the memories of her beloved pets.

Jannettee is survived by her loving family, including her foster daughter, Melissa Halpain and husband Matthew of Tahlequah; one brother Jimmy Stratton and wife Jan of Massachusetts; her two year old grandson, Miles Halpain; and her nieces and nephew; Bridget, Jason, and Jamie. Many of her cherished family from her husband's side and friends. She will be deeply missed by all who knew her.
