ARRANGEMENTS UNDER THE DIRECTION OF MICHEL FUNERAL HOME
My favorite memory of you will always be our super fun Halloween sleepovers watching spooky movies, carving Jack-o-Lanterns, and making gummy worm ice cubes. I will miss your beautiful smile, your style, and your “Hi Britt’s”. I love you forever.
My deepest condolences to Deanna’s family. She will be missed by all her love her. My heartfelt sympathy for her children and may they go forward in life knowing how special and loved they are by their mom. She will be their guiding light and guardian angel in the spiritual world. May you rest in peace sweet Deanna. Love, Patty
I watched you grow from a feisty, strong willed tiny little girl who could definitely hold her own, into a beautiful, passionate, loving woman. A wonderful mother, a loyal friend and forever our Aunt Dee Dee.
Vaya con Dios and keep watch over us all.
Love, Nancy
