Denise Lynn Welsh

Denise was one year ahead of me in school,and while I didn't know her well,we both had that of-the-wall sense of humor that drew us together on occasion;She was like a female version of Bob Newhart-a person of few words, but immense depth of character! Humor dry as a bone.
It also needs to be known that her gentle magic infected everybody she touched throughout her whole life,and always seemed to leave a path of beautiful flowers behind her after she'd travel through a field of...

Denise,

Today is Mother's Day. You are thought of, you are loved, you are missed.

There are chapters of her younger life that can't go unrecognized;as kids,if i was around for a holiday,family function,etc.,she would eventually seek out the younger kids present and make them the focal point of her attention and affection-almost Christ-like,even then it was her calling,pulling from wisdom and maturity way beyond her young years.Denise always had that silent sixth sense,knowing the right things to say and do and most important,knowing when to say and do nothing and to let...

You were one of the most caring and compassionate women I know. You were my step mother who moved many rocks away for me...the change in relationships, the coming of a child were all very tough times for me and you were my angel supporting me always. You are the reason I am in special education! I watched your love of ALL children and belief in their learning...you always inspired me....Even though we have not physically spent time together you have stayed in my thoughts...

My "Nice Niece Nise"...not only were you my first niece, you were my little sister and friend.I will treasure all that you brought to my life...your smile, your laughter, your love. I will miss you so deeply.My love for you I will carry always.I'll cherish the many laughs we shared along our journey together. Aunt Nancy

To loose a friend at such a young age is so hard, but to loose a friend like Denise is one of the hardest things I have done. I haven't seen Denise in a few years, which is shameful. Time gets away from us and we get busy with our everyday lives, and then we are slammed in the heart, and no way to make it right. I grew up with Denise and loved to play outside all day. We were the Belsay Rd trio, Denise, Pam and myself. Even as a kid, she was always a caretaker. She loved taking Darcy...

Denise it has been one week since you left us, life has not been the same my friend. Your memorial like you was Beautiful. It reflected your “Dash”, the extraordinary life you lived. Your life was short but full. If only you could have seen the packed house of individuals there just for you. Yes, there were many tears, including mine. Many loved, admired, and respected you. That was proven on Friday when we all gathered to say farewell. The truth is there are so many pieces of you in all...

Denise will be missed so much by so many. I have learned so much from her and laughed so often. Her friendship was a true blessing to me and I am forever grateful. She will always be with me! Bless you Betsy, Lou and Jim. Much love to you.
