The Cox's moved to New York when LaNetta was a child. She attended A.B. Davis High School, Mt. Vernon, NY, Class of 1958 and worked in New York City after graduation. She married Donald Eric Dietrichson of New Rochelle, NY, on July 14, 1961
The Dietrichson's moved to Texas in the early 70's and lived there for the next 20 years where LaNetta was employed at Gates Motor Company. Don & LaNetta's lives revolved around their family & eventually their church for it was in Iowa Park where they began to attend First Baptist, and where they gave their hearts and lives to the Lord Jesus Christ. Both active in their church, community, their children's sports and other activities they gave of themselves and their love to all who knew them. LaNetta's hobbies included crafting, cooking & entertaining.
In 1988, Don & LaNetta and 2 of their children moved to Mt Airy, MD for Don's construction work. LaNetta worked at both NIH & FDA as an administrative assistant. Again they were active members of their church, Mt. Airy Baptist.
After Don's passing in 1997, LaNetta moved to Frederick, Md with daughter Amy.
She retired from the Federal Government in 2008, and moved to Greencastle, PA in 2010.
LaNetta will always be remembered for her sweet spirit, kind words of encouragement too those she came in contact with, her humble heart and hospitality.
