I didn't know Denise personally. Met her once I think. I do know she worked hard to take care of her kids and loved all her family. I hope they will all continue to stand by Sarah and Dominick that's all she would have ask. I was saddened by her passing.
Though she had just really gotten things together again. New home with her brother and kids. You all have your own angel that is always with you,
you are all in my prayers,

Denise,(DB)as she was affectionately known around the Jones Intercable/TimeWarner offices, you were a wonderful, kind hearted, bubbly spirited person here on earth, so I imagine that could only be magnified all the more in heaven. Rest well my friend from your labor, you will certainly be missed!

Denise and I were best friends at TWC and I tried my best to find her on FB to let her know where I was. She was heavely on my mind these few weeks. I know she is with God. Denise was such a good person and would do all she can to help you if she could. I will miss her so much and remember all the good times we had together...I know she is in heaven with the Angels smiling and dancing and having fun...Evangelist Gwendolyn W. Blake, Chelsea, Mass.

"What can I do to help you?" How many times did dear Denise say this to me??? Denise was the definition of sweet and a true friend. I loved her laugh, respected her intellect, took note of her devotion to her beautiful children and pets, and enjoyed her company so much. The value of a friendship is invaluable.

DD, I didn't know the things I didn't know until after spending many mornings sitting on your lap on the school bus. You were an absolute friend. You were my very first real-life rescue patient and was calmer than I. You were a fun date. You defined sweetness and you were fun to kiss! I'll miss you forever!
