I have known Larry and Denece since I was 15 as they were friends of my parents, Pete and Irene Petersen. In recent years I visited and had lunch with Denece while I lived in Salt Lake City. I last spoke with her a few months ago and was planning on calling her on her 94th birthday. She was a lovely lady who will be missed by many.

We, as friends and neighbors , share in the loss of Denece´s passing. Her recent struggles are now behind her.
We have had many gatherings together with Denece´s and Larry´s family, most of our lives.
We are fortunate to be very close to her, her daughters and grandchildren and of course, her husband.
Pam, my sweet wife, and Shelly, as teenagers, were best friends and lived across the street from each other.
Shelly´s and our children grew up as friends. (and family)
She was a great example.
Her life was very productive.
We are sure there are many great memories of love and closeness centered around your mother, sister, grandchildren and her friends.
She certainly was lovingly received, in heaven, by her families who have previously passed.
Her testimony of the Savior was impressive.
May you all be blessed with love, support, courage and strength at this heart wrenching time.
God´s blessings will be with all of the Disera family and friends.
You all mean so much to us.
Her memorial service was amazing.
Thank you all.
We are also with you and share in the pain of her passing.
We love you all.

My husband Larry Haug who two years ago and I were friends of your mom. All three of us worked at Kennecott. I thought highly of your sweet mother. I especially enjoyed your mom and dad when they visited us and stayed in our condo in Hawaii a number of years ago. She often spoke about her daughters. She was so proud of her girls. Mary Lee Haug
