Lottie Wakefield Obituary

Lottie Marie Wakefield Lottie Marie Wakefield, 76, of Georgetown, entered into rest on Sunday, May 2, 2010. She was born on December 21, 1933 in Italy, Texas.

Together they raised five beautiful children and adored their five grandchildren. Lottie spent most of her career with the Georgetown Independent School District. Some of her favorite times were spent at the beach with her children, travelling with her husband, and playing bridge with her many friends. Lots of fun was to be had by family and friends at their home in the country. Lottie will always be remembered for her laughter and sense of humor. Lottie is preceded in death by her parents; her oldest daughter, Patti Kay Brunat; and her youngest grandchild, Lena Marie Havins. She is survived by her husband of 56 years, John Edwin Wakefield; her daughters, Kerry Lynn Wakefield of Houston, Jan Marie Wakefield of San Angelo, and Lisa Ann and her husband Larry Havins of Georgetown; her son, Jon Edwin Wakefield of Georgetown; grandchildren, Brandee and Karin Brunat, Hana Wakefield, and Dillon Havins.
