Trista Diedre Duran

Trista Dierdre Duran was born March 17 1975 in Groom, TX to Barbara B. Hamilton of Mannford, OK. Trista was the youngest of 4 sisters and a fraternal twin to James Guthrie Duran who passed away at 6 days of age.

Trista was a beautiful curly haired blonde, happy and energetic little girl. At the age of 3 yrs old, she had a fall and hit her head. A short time later she started experiencing speech regression, couldn't feed herself, and eventually couldn't walk or talk. Doctors counted her out so many times over the years, she fought back every step of the way until the evening of June 15th, 2023 when her little body just couldn't fight anymore. We lost our baby sister, but we find peace in the fact that she can now run into our mother’s loving arms and hurt no more.

Trista attended private and public schools, completing a special education program through Evanston school system and was an honorary graduate, Class of 1996 at Mountain View High School. Trista lived at WLRC from 1998 until her passing. She was a daughter, sister, aunt, and friend to so many.

She loved being involved with and around others and especially loved hearing the voices of her family. She was always the toughest of us all. Even through all her pain she was such a happy person, with a little inherited attitude, of course. She was so strong. Anybody who knew her absolutely adored her. She was an angel on this earth, she just gained her wings to fly. You will be dearly missed, our little Tater Bug!
