Denise was a dear friend from Largo High School, she was like a butterfly, but when she lit you could see her true beauty! I think of her and miss her! My condolences to family and friends.

To Pat, my nephews Jason and Jarod and Steve and Toni....I will miss Denise, my SIL (our nickname for each other), a lot. We always laughed and had fun throughout the years. I think of her every day and wish she wouldn't have left us so soon, but I know she's finally at rest. Jason and Jarod, remember the good times and how much your mom loved you. Pat, I'm just an email away. Take care and know that "Auntie Patti" is just an email or phone call away.
