I was sad to hear about the death of Denise. We were neighbors when we both had our businesses at Avondale Center and visited back and forth often. Denise always had a way of welcoming you with her smile as did her lovely mother, Mary Lou. My heart aches for her entire family as you face life without her. May God bless you all and give you strength to face the coming months.
Mary Lou, Danny, and “Uncle” Pete
I am so saddened to hear of “Aunt” Denise’s passing. So many found memories of Chambers Rd and spending time with the family. Losing a mother is one of the hardest things anyone has to go through. I hope you find some comfort in knowing she’s no longer sick, but full of her beautiful light and watching over all of you. Uncle Pete, she adored you so much! I know you’re going to miss her! She will be watching over all of you, always! Watch for the “signs”. Sending hugs and love from Montana. Really wish I could be there in person. You’re all in my thoughts and prayers during this difficult time 🙏🏻❤️
