So sorry for the loss of your beloved Mom,wife,grandma. Dee was a gem and we all enjoyed knowing her She drove my kids for many years and they respected her no nonsense attitude. She had a gift for getting along with even the most difficult kid ( we had one ) and they all loves her. We also knew her from First Aid when she was a selfless volunteer and would respond to an astonishing amount of calls I always had a good laugh when I spoke to Dee, she had just a way of saying what was what! Our thoughts and prayers are with you all. Godspeed.
