My heartfelt sympathy goes out to the entire family. I was in St. Augustine when the accident happened and did not find out about Dena's death until I picked up my Branford paper and read the article.
I am so sorry that I was not there for you, Sarah and Justin, and Wanda Johnson as well.
I love you all and am devastated by this, as I know you are too.
May the Lord give you comfort during this time of sorrow.

Dena I can't believe that you are not with us anymore. I remember the days as a teenager when we would play in Granny's yard. Then when I brought my band to Bronson and we caught up on the times. You had a big heart and a great mind. God bless you and your family. I will alays remember you.
