My thoughts and prayers are with you all. Though I did not know Denise personally, I feel I did through Matt and Amy, whom I love dearly. I am sorry for the void in your life, but keep strong, together, as a family that I know meant so much to your loved one. Mom C to Amy.

Denise, or "Neesee" as my daughter called her, was a wonderful friend and a loving and caring day care provider. I knew from the first day that my daughter was in safe, loving hands. I will never forget you, Denise, and know that you are in a beautiful place where you are at peace.
To Tim, Tara, Joey, Matt, and Diane, my deepest sympathy. You have lost a wonderful wife, mom, and sister. May her love stay with you always.

My prayers are with Denise's family at this time. Denise was a "real lady with class." Denise always had a smile on her face. She was a new friend when I lost my mother but she treated me like we had known each other for years and years and helped me through my grieving. Denise was truly a one of a kind friend and I will miss her deeply. It was an honor to have known her and to be able to call her a friend.

My deepest condolences to the Hampton family for your loss. Denise, or Joey's mom as I knew her, was one of the kindest and compassionate person I have ever known. There is a great void in this world that cannot be filled. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you.
