What a lovely journal entry. Thank you for sharing your memories and last moments with Deann.
I did not know Deann very well, but what I did know is that she was kind, strong, creative, and could put up with one hell of a smart ass (you!). She raised a wonderful family and I am grateful to have been given the opportunity to know her. My deepest love and condolences go out to you, Dennis and Alice. I know she is resting at peace with God.
With heavy hearts we mourn the passing of such a beautiful soul but are truly touched by your loving testimony of your life partner. Deann inspired all who knew her and you, also, were an inspiration with your strength through her illness. Our love and prayers go out to you and Alice and Dennis and the extended family who loved her so much. God bless. May He give you the comfort that you all need now.
Dear Bill, Alice and Dennis,
It is with a heavy heart that we send all of you our deepest condolences for Deann. She was one of the first people to welcome us at IPLC and the first to send her well wishes when our lives led us to Switzerland. She was indeed a very special lady, friend and steward of the church. May you all find peace and comfort in the days that follow and know that you are all in our thoughts and prayers. God bless you all. Karen, Michael, Franklin et Margot
Deann carried such an unfair burden with grace and dignity. I greatly admired her strength and determination. My thoughts are with you, Alice and Dennis as you learn to live without your beloved. God bless you.
