My heart still hurts. The memories of my beloved friend, Deanna, continue to come to mind.Along with the hurt is a rainbow of thankfulness to have had her for such a close friend. Her beautiful smile brought me much joy!I'd love to hear from her family.
I had been trying to locate you, girl. I just wish it had been before you became one of the brightest stars above. Now I look heavenwards and feel you know I'm sending you my love. I hope you remember sleeping outdoors on hot summer...

My sincere condolences to Deanna's family.Deanna & I always said we'd be forever friends.She's always been in my heart, a soul-sister.During our highschool years, she spent one nite at my house & I spent one at her's every week.We doubledated, shared our dreams, joys, sorrows & felt like family.So many years have gone by now & our treasured friendship is only in memories.I'll love her forever! I remember Kenny,Shirley,KC & Rena. Deanna will be one of the brightest stars in Heaven above & I'll...

I'll try this again. My sympathy to all the family and friends. We were classmates and we had so much fun in school laughing and giggling in class. My best memory, the smile, always the smile.

Deanna and go back when I first moved to Roseburg -- before we enter grade school. Her smile hasn't changed over all these years.

My deepest sympathy and prayers to Deann's family. I was a classmate of Deann's, I will always remember her quick smile and her ability to bring out the best in a person.

Deanna will be missed but will join her daughter in heaven. She was a great classmate, so friendly.

My memories of Deanna go back to grade school when we were the two Deanna's and in high school when there were three of us. I've thought of her often over the years when I've run across others with our same name...all born in the same year.

I'll always remember Deanna for the fun times we had in Roseburg Jr. High and High School. She loved to laugh. My sympathy to her family.
