Deena Celeste Butta

Dear Deena, Your spiritual help is felt and appreciated. Love & memory.

I was thinking of you today. You are missed.

I remember my life long friendship with Deena and we will meet again in heaven. Deena and I shared so many life's moments. She was a generous, intelligent and gentle person. My hope is that her family is safe, healthy and living life . May God bless her family and friends as they remember this amazing friend .

Deena, we miss you every day and remember you always. Your presence is still felt in the lyceum, thank you for the blessings and dreams our members have had of you, Sister in the Light! I wish I could keep up with doing close to as much as you did, it is a daunting task and your extraordinary abilities to juggle life's spheres is and was enviable. I miss you, soror, and think of your family daily. IO, EVOHE!

Thanks to those who have done so much to help Deena's family through this sad year. This is the daily Isis prayer that she shared with her students and our fellowship. Thank you for the love and friendship you have all shown.

The Isis Prayer

Holy Goddess Isis,
Mother of all things,
Come to our hearts!
Grant us, thy children,
Love,
Joy,
Wisdom,
...

O Deena, dear friend, you are missed now more than ever! The passing of Lady Olivia Robertson has brought me to tears again as I re-read her tribute to you. We pray for your family and hold you close in our hearts. You remain a bright light in a dark world. Wishing your family at this family-time of year Love, Peace, Good Health, and Light.

Oh Deena, you are sorely missed! You were truly a light to many of us, I know you are still shining bright from your home among the STARS!

I just heard about Deena's passing through the NU alumni magazine. I truly enjoyed hanging out with Deena at Shepherd Hall at Northwestern. We had great times together! My prayers are with her family and friends.
