My heart was just broken when when I just saw this on Facebook Denise was such a good friend & I always enjoyed talking to her. She was a GREAT comfort to me when my husband Eddie Falls passed away in Dec. 2017. She came over & spent hours with me, talking, making me laugh...which I had not done in a long time. She washed dished, straightened my living room & even made up my bed! Kind, thoughtful, generous woman. I will miss her deeply! My deepest sympathies & condolences to her kids &...

Oh no Denise!!! I'm still in shock. She came to see me and check on my Dad who has cancer. She was always laughing and joking and I'll never forget her smile! She was always trying to put me in a better mood. Rest easy sweet friend. I can picture you running to Frank with that big smile. May God wrap his arms around this family and help them through this terrible time and bless her Granbabies she loved so much and was so proud of them.

Oh Denise! You were always so good to me and I loved you for it! I will treasure your memory and of the times throughout the years when we would run into each other and genuinely be happy to see one another. I'm sure your family and close friends are beside themselves with grief. You'll be with us all, laughing and sending love all along the way. I'm sorry you had to leave them so early.
