Minnie Carla Streeter, 87

Minnie Carla Streeter passed away on February 3, 2014, in Yuma, Ariz., while spending the winter with her daughter.

Minnie was born March 2, 1926, in the Silver Vally of Northern Idaho, to Louis and Minnie Nipp. She was the youngest of six children; her only remaining sibling is Florence Johnson, who is 91. After graduating high school, Minnie earned a business degree while living in Portland, Ore. She later returned to Idaho to marry Clarence (Porky) Streeter, and they remained in Idaho to raise their two children.

Minnie managed the Gold Bond Stamp store for many years. One of her passions was selling Avon, which she did for 20 plus years. After they retired Minnie and Porky moved to Priest River, ID where they lived happily. After her husband's death, Minnie remained active in Priest River up until the last five years when she relocated to Heritage place in Coeur d'Alene while spending her winters in Yuma, Ariz.

Minnie is survived by her children: Sally Hensley-Fuhr (husband Steve), and son, Mike Streeter (wife Raylene); and grandchildren: Wendy and Darren Adams, Kim and Bruce Miller, Chad and Melissa Hensley, and Crystal and Martin Grey. She is also survived by her great grandchildren: Alexis, Blake, Danny, Bruce, Jayden, Hailey, Brody, Tatum, Elizabeth, Casey, Christopher, Ellis, and Cole; and numerous nieces and nephews.

Minnie was truly an amazing, warm hearted, giving woman who's faith in God was unwavering. Her generosity toward others made imprints on their hearts and in their lives. Her devotion to her family and friends was beyond words. She was undoubtedly a remarkable, loving woman who will truly be missed by all. We love you!
