Holy crap, been a a year.  So sudden.  I miss you mom, always think there's tomorrow and sometimes it doesn't come. I love you 

As adults, my cousin Denise and I lost touch for many years until I moved to Melbourne, FL in 2006. I visited Denise and Ty, and also reconnected with her sister, Wendy, as well as their mother (my aunt), Aunt Muggs. There were lots of laughs. They were fun, honest, and hard working people. There was never a dull moment. After I married my husband, Jim, in 2015, Denise and Ty made a visit to our home in GA, where we all had a good time getting to know each other. Sadly, Denise left this world before we could spend more time together, but there were our occasional chats online. Poignantly, Denise closed the chapter on her generation in their family, preceded in death by her 2 sisters, Wendy and Becky, and their mother.  I pray Ty and the children and grandchildren will find comfort, and some joy, in the fun memories of Denise’s laughter and keen sense of humor. Without a doubt, she loved her family. 

My condolences to Denise’s Family I was so sorry & sadden to hear of her passing. I worked with her at National Ambulance Builders for many years. She was a very sweet girl & she would help anyone. She will be missed by all of us. RIP dear Lady.

Denise was my mentor first, then my friend. And then she married into my family. We didn't talk often but when we did it was like just a few days had pasted. She was always there for me if I needed her, and me for her.  I will miss her dearly.
                                                                                       Forever in my heart

                                                                                                         JoJo


Denise and I were friends, classmates at Inglis School,  and next door neighbors when we lived in Greenville (IL) in the mid-1950s.  When her family moved to Florida, our mothers stayed in touch.  My parents visited Austin and Marcella several times in Florida.  When our mothers passed, Denise and I got in contact and stayed in touch through email and Facebook.   In July 2014 Denise and Kenneth were in St. Louis for a VFW conference.  Denise and I met for lunch and had a wonderful time catching up and rehashing old memories.  She was always cheerful and upbeat no matter the circumstance.  I will miss hearing from her.  My condolences to Kenneth and her family.

Our thoughts and prayers are for the family of Denise over her passing. I knew her for 47 years and worked with her at National Ambulance Builders for 20 years.   She was one of the Happiest people I've known.  She was a very hard worker and always enjoyed picking back and forth with other employees jokingly.  She will be greatly missed by all of us that knew and loved her.   'till we meet again, RIP Denise, RIP..........
