I learned later of Denise's unfortunate passing as I had moved out of the area. Today I was thinking of her. I remember her being a constant, great addition to Sea Isle Public School system; be it coaching, teaching or listening. I have a special memory of her coordinating school inclusion events such as student put on events. She went above and beyond to bring smiles. I will remember her "music mementos" and her helping I believe with the assistance of her husband, Jake P and I create a rap song "ILAC in the USA." So sorry for the family's loss but she is still remember to this day for things she did while she was with us.

From music to competitive volleyball to trains to Long Island and days at the beach, from celebrations and travel on student budgets to questioning the rules, Denise showed heart along with integrity and loyalty. Surely this soul melts again into the joy she came from and lived in. We're all the better for having known you. My sincere condolences to a dear family.

Denise was first a colleague and fellow teacher, then a dedicated and visionary principal, and always a valued friend.
It is awesome to reflect on how many lives she has touched with her many talents and loving personality. I am grateful for her contribution to my life and extend sincere condolences to her family.

Death leaves a heartache no one can heal,
Love leaves a memory no one can steal.
Denise was a very special loving person with whom it was my privilege to have shared a friendship. She will be missed but will live on in the positive memories she graced those who were blessed to know her. My condolences to Harry, Corey, Chet and her dad.
