Re: NEDenise Has Died

Her faith was unwavering, her love for her family immeasurable, her humor contagious. If a positive attitude could guarantee beating cancer Denise would have lived forever. Sadly, cancer took her - kicking and screaming, I am sure. We are left with a hole in our hearts and her family with a hole in their lives that will never be filled. May the memories they hold of her heal their wounds and guide them in their new life without her.

Rest in peace sweet Denise. You brightened this board and made us laugh, even when life was not so funny. You are loved.
