Deanna was the first friend I made when I moved to Hope as a shy teenager years ago. She was sweet and bubbly and incredibly welcoming. Over the years, I wondered how she’s been. I was surprised to see we both lived in Oak Harbor, but sad to discover it after her passing. I hope it helps to know her kindness is remembered 35 years later. My condolences.
Hi Camille,
Deanna spoke of you quite a bit throughout the years. Always sharing the fun times you two had together when you were young and carefree.
She was a sweetheart and although years have passed since I last saw her, she will remain forever in memory.
My heart is heavy. So many sweet memories from our childhood. I am so very sorry for your loss. Words are so inadequate. I hope to see you in Spokane soon. All my love and prayers that God will soothe your heart aches. ♥️
