Murieldee "Dee" Ruth Berg

Dee was a Colorado native. She was number 3 of 5 children. Born to Walter and Bernice Gillette. She graduated from Colorado Springs High School in 1951. She was a devoted wife to Kermit Berg, the love of her life.

Dee was a proud member of 2 Red Hat chapters, and a longtime member of Tops. In her younger years she was involved in PTA and was the manager of her daughter’s soft ball teams for many years. As a child she was a gifted piano player and played the piano at the Fine Arts Center a few times. Dee enjoyed visiting with family and friends, planting flowers in the spring, shopping and doing laundry. She looked forward to the 1st Thursday of every month when she met with her friends to get their toes done, followed by going out to lunch.
