After her husband, George, passed Deanie was always willing to try anything to keep busy. Wherever she went, she was loved by all because of her sweet nature.

She loved the Lord and trusted Him with everything. She loved singing hymns and was a huge Elvis and Johnny Cash fan.

Deanie was a courageous, caring, kind person who was willing to help others at any time. She was a wonderful example to her children in many ways.
