David and I had such a great time with Paul and Denise last year while in Florida doing all the things that are popular in the Villages: Block parties, shuffle board, pickleball, bocce ball, billiards, riding in the golf carts, going to plays, going to the square to listen to music, celebrating our anniversaries together, fishing, playing Euchre very night and getting with other friends from Indiana. We also enjoyed their time with us in Indiana playing Euchre and drinking margaritas.
Denise will be greatly missed. A beautiful soul gone way too soon.
Paul and family – so sorry for your loss. Praying for comfort during this difficult time. Cindy Montgomery, Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield associate
The Brockmann family, I am so very sorry for your loss. We played golf with Denise and Paul at Brightleaf and it was a great pleasure knowing them both. There are no words. I am truly sorry.

Paul and family,
I’m so sorry for your loss. Denise was such a sweet person who will truly be missed. I have fond memories of visiting your home in Indianapolis and the week we spent in Charleston all those years ago. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

My heart is deeply grieved over the loss of my sweet cousin, Denise. We shared many happy times growing up together that bring joy to my heart. We had several heartfelt conversations recently and I thank God for the love of Jesus that will forever connect us. My prayer is that everyone whose life was touched by her love will know the comfort and hope that only knowing Jesus as their Lord and Savior brings. Paul, we love you and lift you and your family up to the God of all comfort. May His peace be with you as you walk thru this valley and may you feel His presence like never before. PSALM 23ߒ
Paul and family, I am so sorry for your loss. My thoughts and prayers are with you. David Braselton
