Pork chop will forever miss you! You were the greatest woman I could have ever had in my life! You were another grandmother to me, I Love You DeeDee 💔
I loved her so much. Everything you said about her was right on. A beautiful soul on earth.. She now joins her mom and sisters she loved and missed dearly. Walk with the angels and we will see each other again in heaven.
Dede was a huge part of my growing up always offered good advice and helped whenever she could. She was stern but compassionate. There couldn’t of been a better person to of filled her spot in my life.
I will miss and love you always.
You enriched everyone who you knew. Such a blessing. You are very missed.
My mom and DeeDee were great friends. I saw her at moms funeral in 2021. She was a lovely and caring woman that I’m so glad I got the pleasure of meeting. Rest in peace pretty lady.
Jen and I are so sorry for your loss. DeeDee was a beautiful person. She fought the good fight and now she’s at peace. God Bless.
I met DeeDee about 14 years ago, when I started working at O Reilly. We talked alot on our smoke breaks. She loved to talk and give you her wisdom about life. We quickly became good friends. Yes I got frustrated with her at times, but I knew she always meant well.
I have alot of memories with her, one that stands out. I would be her work partner some days , because we were so good at our job . She would dance and act silly especially if Michael Jackson came on..we had a blast. I know she REALLY missed her Mama alot, I’m sure they are together again. Rest in Peace. Thanks for your support in my life ❤️ love and miss you always.
We are saddened your loss. Deedee was strong in spirit and compassionate. I met her for the last time at a nursing home where she came to visit my brother along with her sisters. She loved on him and brought joy and hugs for my brother. Deedee, Sue and Joy shared fond memories of growing up as close cousins. We will miss her. Anne Romig
