About Retta Waters
Retta Decker Waters, age 85, passed peacefully on Sunday, May10, 2015, at her daughter’s home in Reno, Nevada. She was born May 3, 1930, in Parowan, Utah to Joseph Victor Decker and Vera Wood. On September 8, 1946, she married her eternal companion Ronald Morgan Waters in Las Vegas, Nevada. They were sealed February 27, 1965, in the St. George LDS temple.
Retta grew up in Parowan, Utah. She loved her family and was blessed with 8 beautiful children, 21 grandchildren, and 57 great-grandchildren. Retta and Ron resided in Logandale in 1990 and always loved living in the valley by their many friends and family. Retta will be remembered for her sincere love of the gospel, big warm hugs, loving smile, her welcoming arms, and warmth and generosity to all those she met. She always loved spending her free time crocheting, but especially loved to cook and made sure that anyone that came to visit would never leave with an empty belly. We are so blessed to have had her in our lives and for the great example she was of unconditional love to all those around her. She will be greatly missed by all who knew and loved her.
Survivors include four daughters and one son: Annette (Ross) Jones of St. George, Utah; Ronda (Louie) Chambers of Reno, Nevada; Jolene (Brad) Tanner of Springville, Utah; David of Florida; Kristine (Loren) Young of Farron, Utah; 21 grandchildren; 57 great-grandchildren; two sisters: June Parkinson of Overton, Nevada, and Carol Carter of Parowan, Utah. She was preceded in death by her husband Ronald Morgan Waters, and three sons: Rodger Decker Waters, Kevin Ronald Waters, and an infant son; two sisters, and four brothers.
