Dee-Dee, Your passing was far too premature and has us all in shock and at a loss for words. We will always remember the goods times like when we were looking for X-mas lights and you found what we were looking for at Longs Drugstore and I asked you to save us some, you put the entire stock of lights in your basket and called us to come get them. We had some really fun times and you were a very special person always eager to help others. We will miss you friend and shall always remember you...

Dee-Dee,
A warm ,sunny smile of yours greeted me in your back yard in the late 1990's. That smile will remain with me in my heart forever. Your kind words and friendship were more than I deserved, and how I wish now that I could have done so much more to be of assistance to you. You are at peace. To God, I thank for that. Love you.
