Losing a loved one is never easy, but our loving God promises to give the strength and courage you'll need to endure, and to cope with the pain of your loss. He also promises to hold your hand every step of the way. (Isaiah 40:29, 41:10, 13) May loving memories also sustain your family during this difficult time. Ann Smith

Deede, besides being a beautiful woman on the outside, mirrored that beauty on the inside. She had spunk and a twinkle in her eyes and loved to laugh. Her life with Barbie was a story book relationship and oh how she loved the ranch and her home in Big Timber. Being generous was her signature and she gave without recognition and I will always remember how feisty she was and was a wonderful hostess she was, both in Santa Fe and in Big Timber. Deede, know that you will remain in my thoughts and I was honored to be your friend.
