Shauna and Mitch -
My parents and I are thinking of you and your families and remembering your mom in so many ways. Many years have passed but the fond and funny memories will never fade. Your mom was our leader and friend and we so enjoyed spending time with her and oh those drives back and forth to the monthly seminary meetings and first Friday dances. So much laughter and even serious talk. We always knew she loved us and we loved her too. My parents send their love and prayers also.
Love,
Aurora

Dear Mitchell and Shauna, I am so very sad to hear of your mom's passing. It has been over 20 years that we lived in Crown Point...and I have been so negligent in keeping in contact with your mom...but she holds a special place in my heart as being one of my dearest friends ever. I'm sure she has left much of her legacy of character to you two, and your children. What a strong, intelligent, witty, resourceful, compassionate, wise, fun-loving woman your mom was (and still is, I'm sure). She was the medicine I needed when feeling blue - with her caring listening ear, and her signature wit and humor throwing me into fits of laughter. I will always cherish those times. May God bless you and your families with comfort and peace knowing your mom is just on the other side of the veil sharing with others her spice and colorful spirit! Love, Julie Johnson and Family

Dear Drake Family,
Our love and prayers are with you at this time. I want you all to know I am thinking of you and praying for you. I am so glad I was able to talk to "Dee" for a few hours over the past two months. So many amazing memories with her as I served as a missionary there in Crown Point. So many lessons learned and taught to be by Denise. I am always reminded to "Close that bathroom Door!". :) I Love you and will sincerely miss you; my freind and second Mom.
