Paula Diane Luttenton, age 78, of Sand Lake, formerly of Grand Rapids, passed away early Friday morning, May 6, 2022 at McLaren Greater Lansing Hospital. The daughter of Paul Eugene & Dorothy Jean (Willitt) Barton, she was born on September 2, 1943 in Durand, Michigan and graduated from Michigan State University.
A devoted mother and grandmother, Paula enjoyed feeding and listening to the birds, reading books and the company of her cats.
She was preceded in death by her parents. Surviving are her three children, Phoebe & Chad Thompson of Sand Lake, Dorian & Monte Goodyk of Sully, Iowa and Ryan & Heather Luttenton of Glen Ellyn, Illinois; eight grandchildren Miles Goodyk, Marcus Goodyk, Mackenzie Goodyk, Aricin Thompson, Dalby Luttenton, Charlie Luttenton, Quinn Luttenton and Anders Thompson; a sister, Marilyn & John Rodgers of Davenport, Iowa; two nieces, Susan Randall of Rockford, Michigan, and Renee Rodgers of Davenport, Iowa; and a nephew, Stephen Rodgers of Eugene, Oregon.
Honoring her wishes, no services will be held. Instead of flowers, Paula would have appreciated contributions in her memory to the Humane Society of West Michigan (www.hswestmi.org) or a charity of the donor's choice.
Cremation arrangements were entrusted to Christiansen's Michigan Cremation & Funeral Care, Greenville, (616) 754-5638.
