LaRee E. Huff, 76, of Plymouth, Minnesota, went home to be with the Lord on November 2, 2025, surrounded by her loved ones. She was born in Cedar Falls Township, Iowa, LaRee grew up with a deep love of family, faith, and helping others.

She continued her aviation career through airline mergers and changes, retiring with Delta Airlines in 2005 after 36 years of dedicated service.
In recent years, LaRee brought that same warmth and kindness to her work at Hy-Vee Grocery Store, where she joyfully served customers in the bakery and at the cashier station. Her friendly smile and caring heart touched everyone she met.
It brought much joy to LaRee when served the Lord through her work with children through the years in: BSF (Bible Study Fellowship), Sunday School, Awana, and Pioneer Girls.
