Denise will surely be missed as one of the small group left from Jena St. since the 1940's in New Orleans. She will be remembered dearly.

You were a kind soul with a loving heart.
You will be missed by many. I'm still in disbelief of your passing so unexpectedly.
To live in hearts we leave behind is not to die.
