Velna Vivian Streetman Dupree, 86, of Frost passed away Monday, March 18, 2002 at her residence.
Services will be 2 p.m. today at Mausoleum Chapel. Interment will follow at Forest Chapel Cemetery in Webster, Texas.
Pallbearers will be her grandsons.
Mrs. Dupree was born Sept. 21, 1915 in Rockhill, one of 17 children, to Charlie Mac and Clara Streetman. After graduating from Luling High School, she moved to Houston, where she met and fell in love with her husband, James Allen Dupree. The couple became loving parents to four children. Velna was called by three other names; Honey by her husband, Mother by her children and Nanny by her grandchildren and great-grandchildren. These were the names she treasured because the people she loved most used them.
She was preceded in death by her husband, James Allen Dupree and 14 brothers and sisters.
Mrs. Dupree is survived by daughters Jeanine Fontenot and husband Jerry of San Leon and Deborah Green of Seabrook; sons Ray Dupree and wife Jana of Poulsbo, Wash. and Jim Dupree and wife Dorothy of Frost; 15 grandchildren; 23 great-grandchildren; sister Winona Fielder in Austin; and sister-in-law Sarah Streetman of Waco.
