My favorite memory of my Great Aunt Dee is her smile,I never saw her without one and will never forget her face because of it and ALL of her beautiful children have it! She gave some of the best hugs,when she hugged you,you knew she meant every ounce of the love for you she gave with it!
I loved helping with Dee at Magnolia Spring even when she didnt feel good she always had a smile on her face and kind words to say. Rest in Heaven. Jane
Judy, my deepest sympathy to you and your family on the death of your mother. I join my prayers to yours. May she rest in eternal peace in the arms of her Creator.
Judy and family My deepest sympathy to you and your family. I am sorry I cannot attend the services for Dee. I have bronchitis again. I loved seeing your mother at Saturday mass and waving to her. I enjoyed seeing her at the casino. She was a beautiful lady who will be greatly missed. Again my deepest condolences and my prayers are with you and your family. Nora Cunningham
I am so sorry for the loss of your dear Delores. While words fail to capture the pain of losing a loved one, we look forward to the time when words will fail to capture the joy of having our heavenly Father return her to you. (Acts 24:15) May you have peace at this difficult time.
My deepest sympathy to all of you. It has been a pleasure to get to know the whole Miller family while Dee and John resided at Magnolia Springs. I will miss her positive attitude and her lovely smile. Rest In Peace.
