Simple on of the sweetest ladies I have ever met. I really mean that. And she was always so proud of her sons.

So many fond memories of knowing Deede while she worked at St. Anne in Beaumont. God Bless her family at this time and may His strength and love comfort all of you.

Deede had the patience and love of a saint every time I called to ask questions or request help while she was our church secretary. She has been missed since she retired and will be always remembered as a most beautiful, spiritual, loving woman who graced many lives.

As some people journey through life, they leave footprints wherever they go. Footprints of kindness and love, courage and compassion, humor and inspiration, joy and faith. Deede left behind a trail bright with hope that invites us to follow. A dear friend, who was loved by all.
