I am so saddened to hear of Denyell's passing. My son, Alex, and Brynn were in Kindergarten class together last year. I saw Denyell last summer and the boys played at her house in Waxhaw shortly before she moved back to MA. I am totally shock to hear of this devastating news. I am praying for her husband and her children.
Sincerely,
Mrs. Healy

We were so devastated to hear about your loss. Our son Will and Brynn were buddies last year in kindergarten and I loved getting to know Denyell. She was so full of life and had a smile that always brightened my day. She was such a wonderful mother and my heart breaks for your children. You are all in our, thoughts and prayers. Please give Brynn a hug for us and let him know how much Will misses him. We have some great pictures of Denyell from the end of the year activities at school last year that we will send you.

Lorraine and Doug:
I am truly sorry to hear of the loss of your beloved Denyell. I remember summers in Holbrook when she was just a toddler having fun in the pool with Annemarie and David and the Gaynor kids. Some memories are never lost even after all these years.

We were deeply saddened by the news of Denyell's death. We have many fond memories of summers at her family's pool and Christmas eve at the Kaake house. She was much too young to pass with so much to live for. The family is in our thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.

In My Pocket
I have memories in my pocket.
They rattle among the change.
My memories of you are treasures I carry wherever I go.
They are stored in bits and pieces, parts of a beautiful whole
They give me comfort when I think I am alone.
Yes, I have memories in my pocket, like so much other stuff I keep there.
But of all the treasures I have, it’s the memories of you that are the most precious.

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.
Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."
It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man."
God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.
When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.
I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.
There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.
If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.
So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.
And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.
