We knew Deanna through her sister, Gloria Satrom Power when she lived in Colorado and Deanna visited here. She was a vibrant, outgoing beautiful lady and life was never dull for her......RIP at last, Deanna. Condolences to her family....

Back to Finley, ND 1069. Pres and I were transferred to the AF Radar Site. (winter, cold, middle of nowhere) Then, the Mary Kay saleslady, instant rapport! JoDee and Jill ( you were so cute), lutefisk dinners (yuck), always won the best yard award, couldn't wait for her yard sales, divorce (tough), hangouts ( gossip, laughs). We left in '71 but never lost contact. Memories! To see how much she was loved and the comments from her family and friends is heartwarming. She had a good life!
