Guestbook

  1. My heart goes out to the whole family and Denise’s many friends. I was blessed to know Denise as my daughter’s wonderful mother-in-law and my son-in-law’s wonderful mother, but also as a friend. We always wish we’d had more time to enjoy with those we love. When Laura and Dave got married, I felt like I had also gained another family and we have been so blessed to always feel welcome and included in the family gatherings with them. There are many fun and happy times to remember. Denise was a very special and strong lady and we will miss her. I already do. Diane and Wayne Roberts

  2. Rest Leslie, until you hear at dawn, the low, clear reveille of God. Thank you for your service to this nation.

  3. Denise was a great friend, I will miss our breakfast/lunch talks about the kids, grandchildren, mom, and the rest of the family. She loved to talk about her family, especially when Lisa & David got together and shared stories that would make her laugh for hours. Denise lived life to the fullest and had a bucket list a mile long. She was always coming from-or getting ready to go on another trip. There are so many things that Denise accomplished in her lifetime, I admire her persistence to stay focused and keep her chin up even though it was tough at times. You will be missed my friend.

  4. Lisa, I’m so sorry for your loss! My heart hurts for you. I will continue to keep you and your family in prayer. May God provide you strength and comfort in this most difficult time.
