Not sure what to say?

Dede left such beautiful memories behind with our tennis groups especially! The more I get to know her grandchildren, the more I love her special legacy to each one. Her kind heart is what they most admired about both their very special grandmothers, both of whom are gone too soon.

Dede was a wonderful friend whose wit and wisdom endeared her to so many! Her grandchildren are such a joy, especially those who remind us of her, but I wish she were here to enjoy them, as she certainly did! Her affection for friends and family was much appreciated by all and she is so often fondly remembered and missed.

We have so many happy memories of Dede, on and off the tennis court and for years! Her vibrant energy, authenticity and wit brightened happy and sad moments for all of us. She will be admired and remembered, especially when we provide a zesto cone to a kid standing in line--the perfect memorial for our dear friend!

Oh Dede I laughed and cried all at the same time reading your Obit. That was so you. Such wonerful memories we have of working to make this a better city. You were always in the corner of neighborhoods and fought along with us. Wonderful days walking in the 3 rivers parades, working on the green way, conferences we attended, the breakfasts, the picnics. You and Sam always there for us.I remember the Toledo Conference when we went to eat at Pacos,(MASH) we ate too much and suffered heart burn...

One fabulous lady who always had a smile
and ready for fun.Great times at IU.

So sorry to hear of your loss. Used to play tennis with DeDe. She was always laughing and just full of life. She was a very special lady.
My thoughts are with you.

Sam,
My deepest sympathy for the passing of DEDE. Mark "Beatle" Bailey

Sam, Ben, Jake, Johanna and all of Dede's precious little grandbabies, I am so sorry for your loss. You are all in my prayers.
