She was a proud 1959 graduate of Lowry City High School and loved attending & helping prepare for class reunions and get-togethers with classmates who became lifelong friends.

When she had the chance, she liked to go visit the kids/grandkids, and vacations that usually included a casino somewhere along the way.  Deanie was a wonderful friend, wife, mother & “Grandma Babe”.  She enjoyed making homemade ice cream in the summertime and watching the fireworks.  She loved spending time with family & friends, and never liked to miss the grandkid’s birthdays, deer season with friends stopping by to visit, and Christmas was always very special to her as well.  Her helpful hands and loving, caring ways will be missed by all who knew her.
