My name is Jessica, and I took care of Denise for awhile and got to know her pretty well. She was an amazing woman! Always made me smile.

Denise was our next door neighbor. She learned responsibility early . She accomplished what she set out to do
What a great neighbor ! and friend. Many times when I came over to visit she was reading a book and would tell me all about it. When her grandma was out and she was in charge / they had a good ol time!
