Denise was a “Happy” and gentle soul, always wanting to do for others! Always with a smile on her face. Organizing & keeping our family in touch & reunions going, on top of everything else. She will be sorely missed. In Gods comfort & care! David & Yvonne
I always remember being at at Gurty and uncle John’s. Penny Lori and myself were listening (and drolling) to Rod Steward If you think I’m sexy. Boy did we think he was sexy! I also remember flying down dirt streets with her in Coffeville. The family reunions will not be the same. Dee Dee was always like a sister. She will be truly missed. May you R.I.P.
Dee was very dear friend I got to know her when Jim Murphy was a klown for the Shiners. She was there to help all of the klown but when Jim wasn’t feeling well she help him.l will miss her and our fb chats. And she always signs off if you need me let me know and stay safe mom. Prayers going up for the family.
David, we are so sorry to hear of Dee’s passing. She will be greatly missed, not just by the Klowns, but by all of Midian.
What a loss. Dee was the kindest person. You ask her for help and she was always there. A great friend and her wonderful smile i will miss cooking with her and all the great times i had with her and David. Lots of great memories.
Dee was always kind hearted to me. Rest Well, Dee.
My deepest condolences to the family. Denise was a old grade school friend. I spent many days at Thelma and Harrolds. I just learned of both passing. Sweetness overload. They both will be greatly missed. Regina Mangan
