Dee/Denise,
I will miss you my friend. Hanging out on the deck having a BBQ and cocktails or whale watching on the 4th of July, our Epic fire pit nights in the gazebo. You were always an honest, loyal, caring and giving friend who I could talk to about anything. I will miss your cooking lol, but mostly I will miss you, more than you know. 💕
