John – Even though your time with Denny was short, there will be great memories. I remember the day we met the two of you in the Lowe's parking lot – you had just gotten married that day and both of you were “glowing” with happiness.
I first got to know Denise when she was at the law firm through my brokerage in real estate, then came to know her better during my time working at Salem University with John. Denise was a precious woman. A Strong, faithful servant of God who cherished her family. She was an inspiration to me as she fought a courageous battle- Will remember her fondly and miss her always. Brenda

Denise was a great woman. Even when she was feeling very ill, she would still accept my phone call to see how she was. She was so kind and caring. I will miss her so much. God has another angel.
Denise knows I love her and will miss her. I know she is in a better place and no longer suffering. John, I will always be there for you.
