Hannah Lueda (Phillips) Brewer

Born in Vernon, Texas to Lucian and Edrie Phillips. Lueda was a combination of her father's and mother's names.

Her father was a sharecropper, then oil well rigger, who was required to move all over the Midwest. Lueda stated that in one year she went to five different schools in 4 different states and she loved the moving for it meant she would be able to make more friends.

Lueda loved everyone she met and every one of her friends and family. Every person who knew her said that she never met a stranger.

Lueda loved life, her children and friends. She also loved reading and writing stories. She worked as a reporter for the Oklahoma Times and as a writer/reporter for the Lincoln City FOGHORN newspaper in Oregon.

Lueda graduated from High School in Blanchard, Oklahoma at the age of 17 in 1945 and married Edward Graves when she was 18, and in 1971 married Ralph Brewer.

Now she's in heaven meeting new friends and becoming reacquainted with old friends and family that preceded her.

Lueda was preceded by her parents, her brother Phil, and sister Sammie Wilson.

She is survived by her son Dane Graves of Watsonville; Two daughters, Kathi and Autumn, a brother Michael; Ex-husband Ralph Brewer; Granddaughter Cassidy Hozer; Grandson Jack; Great-grandson Cooper and many nieces and nephews.

Much love to her dearest friend Mariela who so lovingly helped care for Lueda during her final years.
