I was Denise's neighbor for about 6 years. Although I did not see her often, whenever I did see her she was always very kind and friendly. I know that, with her daughters beside her, she fought hard to beat her illness. I am so sorry to hear of her passing and want to let her family know my thoughts are with them in this difficult time.

Denise touched my life so much while i took care of her. She made me laugh and listened to me, we often talked about bradley and my children too. Denise was such a compassinate person with all she had to deal with in her own life she still always had time to ask you how you were doing, When i met her parents I understood exactly were she had gotten such a wonderful personality from such loving parents I can only hope that I can show my own children the love and support that you both gave to denise I enjoyed every minute with denise and you both ,I've learned alot about what kind of nurse I want to be and Denise will be in my heart forever. If i can do anything for any of you please let me know. Love jaimie Ayer
