Dee will be missed so much.  Whenever she was with the ladies of our Red Hat Group, she made us laugh, she was funny and witty; she made us think, she was so intelligent and well spoken.  She was loyal to her friends. She will forever be with us in memory.  We love you Dee.

Dear Tom & Family

I went to Lincoln High School with Dee and we were in college block together.  Though I moved out to California 38 years ago, we reconnected on the Lincoln High school forum.  My thoughts and prayers are with you during this time.  The world will miss this beautiful lady.

Dear Tom and family,
I am so sorry to hear of Dee’s passing and her struggle with her illness. I am also a Lincoln HS graduate and we have enjoyed several meetings since then thru a school Forum where we connected with other fellow graduates. I always enjoyed her humor and her joy of meeting with friends. And she was very sorry to hear about my Bob passing a few years ago and her condolences were endearing. She is now able to enjoy a reunion with her other friends from school who have passed away in the past few years and some from the Forum where we all gathered often to chat.

Tom,
God worked his magic and left her pass in her sleep,you and the children should feel comfort in that she is out of her pain and you were there with her all through the end days. As I said before she should get a special medal for going through all the discomfort from Cancer over the past 24 years. You should also be commended for being there for her all those years. Ernie and I will see you at the viewing and just know you have our deep sympathy in your loss.

Love
Ernie and cheryl

We would like to thank everyone for their love and support, especially my mother’s brother, Don Boudwin. It’s been a great help knowing how all you feel about Dee and what she meant to you.

My name is Lisa Ludwig.  My son Bill attended kindergarten at happy days learning center.  He had the distinct pleasure and advantage of having Mrs Cornish as his teacher.  Not only was she a wonderfully talented and gifted teacher but a kind, compassionate person as well.  Please know that we will miss her greatly and always think of her fondly.

With Deepest Sympathy,
Lisa and William Ludwig

I am sorry for your loss Kevin.  I am praying for you and your family. 
Sincerely,

Dear Tom, Suzanne & Kevin,
My deepest sympathy to you all.  I know what a great wife,mother & grandmother Dee was, and she was a great friend too.  I have very fond memories of Dee which started 48 yrs. ago at WCU.  She was a pillar of strength to us all as she jumped one hurdle after another these past 24 yrs. during her battle with this horrible disease. I will remember her constant smile, her laughter, her positive attitude, our many discussions about family and politics, our trip to Ireland … the hand that constantly reached out to show love, support and encouragement throughout the years.  She remembered holidays and birthdays with cards, gifts, and how she enjoyed our long chats on the phone.  She was a rare person who comes along sometimes only once in a lifetime.  I will remember her always with affection.  I’m lucky to have her as another angel looking over me.

Love,
Cindy

Dear Tom and family,
I only "knew" Dee through the Lincoln Forum but her cheerfulness, sense of humor and especialy her love of her family came through the inter-net.  Your loss is great – My sincere sympathy to all of you.
