My sincere sympathy to Denise's family. We went to Alvernia together and spent many days after school in gym activies. We were good friends and competitors at that time. It is sad to see such a nice person go at an early age. Joanne (Posch) Wagner

Denise was an inspiration to us all. Her spirit was unending as her faith in life itself. I will miss her, but will always remember her smiling voice.

What a friend and mentor, Denise, became in just 10 short years. Her ever present smile and cheery hello, will be missed. But, I rejoice in her spirit being able to spend this Christmas and everyday from now on with Jesus.

What a Christmas gift God has given us to call back home his long suffering handmaiden and our beloved cousin, Denise. What a reunion it must have been when Denise arrived back home to her Mom & Dad and all the Masen and Kavanagh families and, at long last, to behold her Lord and Redeemer!
Yes, we will miss Denise, her love and her Irish wit, but our loss will not be forever and that, some day, we will be reunited with her . . . back home.

I first met Denise 10 years ago, taking my first weaving class during a difficult period in my life. Her strength, Irish wit, creativity and energy inspired me whenever I was in her presence. I treasure the shawl that we wove together. Rest in peace, Chris
