What a great loss, of a great gal. Dee will be forever remembered by her friends at Plaza Middle School cafeteria. Dee and I worked together 17 years but were friends for 23 years. Our hearts go out to the family at this difficult time. I wish we’d had time for one more garden party or one more lunch out. We miss your smile and your laugh already, Love Mary, Pam and Nancy
