Monette passed away Wednesday, February 15, 2023, at Avera McKennan Hospital in Sioux Falls, surrounded by her daughters and their love. Monette Katherine Pritchett, daughter of George and Noma (Becker) Courtney, was born January 11, 1958, at Lynch, Nebraska. She graduated from Lynch High School in 1976. On July 31, 1976, Monette married Robert Pritchett at the United Methodist Church in Lynch. Together, they had three daughters. While her children were growing up, Monette ran a daycare in her home and worked part-time jobs throughout the Creighton community, including the Covered Wagon, Marlene's Café, Heaton's Food Center, and Gragert's Grocery Store. Family was of the utmost importance to Monette. She made raising her children a priority. Life for her was even better when her grandchildren came along. They were her pride and joy. She made friends easily, taught her family to be kind to everyone, and taught them the grace of smiling through life's struggles. Sharing a meal with family and friends was a highlight for Monette. She enjoyed cooking and baking and shared this love of good food with her daughters. Monette also enjoyed gardening and growing flowers throughout her lifetime and especially loved the beauty of hydrangea and hibiscus. For a time, Monette lived with her daughter Andrea and her family while her son-in-law was in the Air Force. They lived in different locations throughout the country including Phoenix, AZ; Tacoma, WA; and Colorado Springs, CO. Monette really enjoyed the newness and excitement of city life. She was preceded in death by her father and grandparents. Burial in ABVM Catholic Cemetery, Lynch, NE per FH staff
