Jean "Truett" Flud

Jean Truett Flud, 96, of Desoto, formerly of Idalou, went to be with her Lord and Savior on Wednesday evening, September 3, 2025. Jean was born on July 30, 1929, in Petersburg, Hale County, Texas, to the late Ewell Haston Truett and Katie (Harris) Truett.

Jean attended school in Idalou and graduated with the senior class of 1946. She later attended Life Bible College in Los Angeles, graduating in 1955.

She met the love of her life, L. B. Flud, and they were united in marriage in June of 1958. Mr. Flud preceded her in death on October 11, 1989.

Jean worked in the Abernathy school system as a substitute teacher for many years. She loved to sew, but her favorite hobby was singing and playing the piano. She loved to read and do word puzzles, and her family said she was a jack of all trades and family oriented. She was a member of New Hope Four Square Church.

Those left to honor and cherish her memory include one son, Dana Flud and his wife Marsha of Lubbock; one daughter, Alisa Flud-Demetro and husband Randy of Desoto; one brother, Dean Truett and wife Carlene of Georgetown; five grandchildren and ten greatgrandchildren. Jean was preceded in death by her parents; husband; brothers: Pierce Truett, Travis “Tab” Truett and Dibrell “Dib” Truett;  and three sisters: Louise Morris, Oneida “Nete” Stanton and Katie Starling.
