Betty June Schlueter, 73, of Luana, Iowa died on Friday, October 20, 2017 at Veterans Memorial Hospital, Waukon, Iowa. Betty June was born on April 29, 1944 to Walter William and Wilhelmina Amanda Elizabeth (Henry) Stewart in McGregor, Iowa. She graduated from MAR-MAC High School in 1962.
Betty was united in marriage with Harlan Schlueter, they later divorced. After the divorce she relocated to Two Rivers, Wisconsin to be near family. She retired from Kewaunee Nuclear Plant and moved back to Iowa in 2006 to be closer to her family here.
Betty loved having her grandchildren and great grandchildren stop by to see her. You could find her sitting in her driveway visiting with neighbors and surrounded by the homeless cats in Luana that made their way to her place because they knew there was food and shelter. She will be missed dearly by her companion, DD, who never left her side.
