The celebration of life for Dede on Saturday was beautiful. You captured her spirit ❤❤ I loved Dede - she was a part of the Floody family and will forever be missed. I have so many great memories of Beth and Dede throughout the years - she was always smiling and I can still hear her laugh. I pray that God will give your family peace knowing that she is in a better place. Prayers and love to all of you, Ann Floody Barwig

So sad to learn of Dede's passing. We went through grade school together and saw each other occasionally throughout our high school years. I will always remember Dede's beautiful smile and kind heart. She was such a nice person, so good to everyone and had such a zest for life. My sincere sympathy to the family and my heartfelt gratitude for knowing such a kind soul at such a young age. She made a difference!

John and family,
I am so so sorry for your loss! I send prayers your way. Thank you so much for letting me know! I so wish I could have been there for the services. I was trying so hard but couldn't get it all worked out. She was the best! We leaned on each other a lot mainly when times were hard! My heart is broken into a thousand pieces.
