Heaven has another angel. I met you when I was 15 and the new kid in I. You made it a point to make us feel welcome when our families blended. You and I got in to a lot of harmless adventures. You treated me like a sister, and no matter what I f I needed someone to listen or just hang out with you were there. The world lost a sincere and genuine person. I will forever remember you and the good times we had. I will keep all of you in my prayers. You have always been one of the strongest women I knew

I was one of her clients at the Elizabeth Richardson Center where she worked. She would always come to our Dinner Verity shows where we would raise money for our sport teams. She was very involved in anything that had to do with the.Elizabeth Richardson Center.

She will be missed.

Oh, Denise. Such a contagious smile. Fun to be around and great taste in music. Family gatherings won't be the same without you. I know you're squeezing Joshua tight and know your grand babies have an amazing angel watching over them.

I was blessed to have Denise as a best friend for 52 years. We met at church when we were 5 and were baptized the same day when were 9 years old. She loved fiercely and she loved the Lord and her family ??. She is with Jesus now. Rest in paradise my beautiful friend. I know you will be waiting for me.
