Loretta Plutz, 51, Minot, formerly of Michigan, Illinois and Tennessee, died Thursday, December 11, 2025, in her home.

Loretta Plutz passed away surrounded by love, leaving behind a legacy of devotion, kindness, and unwavering love for her family. She was a beloved wife, mother, grandmother, daughter, and sister, and the heart of her family.

Loretta shared a loving marriage with her husband, Robert Plutz, and together they built a life rooted in commitment, care, and family. She was a proud and devoted mother to her two daughters, Eden and Elysia, who were the center of her world. Loretta's love extended to her five cherished grandchildren, Kenzington, Cassie, Harlow, Kallia, and Tia, each of whom brought her immeasurable joy and pride.

She is also lovingly remembered by her mother, Terry Brzoznowski; her stepfather, Bruce Brzoznowski; her sister, Jennifer Plumley; and her brother, Brad Brzoznowski, all of whom shared a deep and lasting bond with her.

Loretta valued learning and personal growth and earned a Bachelor's degree in Human Resources, an accomplishment that reflected her dedication, professionalism, and desire to help others.

Family was everything to Loretta. She treasured time spent together and created countless memories filled with love and laughter. Outside of family life, Loretta enjoyed camping, hiking, and traveling, finding peace and joy in the outdoors and in discovering new places with those she loved.

Loretta will be remembered for her warmth, compassion, intelligence, and unwavering devotion to her family. Though her presence will be deeply missed, her spirit and the love she shared will live on in the hearts of all who knew and loved her.

Psalm 145:13 "Your kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and your dominion endures through all generations. The Lord is trustworthy in all he promises and faithful in all he does."

A service will be held Spring 2026
