Friends are like angels set upon this earth to guide us through thick and thin. Denice was one of those angels who stood beside you throughout the years never asking for anything in return. She will be sadly missed, but her gestures of caring, goodwill, and kindness will be part of your spirit now as we go forward through life.

Our sincere thoughts and prayers are with you.

With our deepest sympathy,

Stephanie Blackmon
And
