    Rest in peace, Dena. I will miss you. You were unique and genuine. From our days in the backyard playing cowboys and indians to our good times together as adults, I have so many memories that I will cherish of you. Thank you for always saying “I love you” when we would say goodbye on the phone. May God hold you now and give you His peace.

    My warmest condolences go to Robert, Thomas, and Dawn.
