I just learned this sad news, and I send my deepest sympathies to Deanne's friends and family. She was a wonderful friend and we had some great times in Las Vegas. She was a true Renaissance woman, from art to music, design, writing and gourmet cooking. All of that was rivalled only by the depth of her heart. She was a true bright light and I am sorry she has left us so soon.

Offering my sincere condolences and prayers to Deanne’s family and friends. I have fond memories of Deanne since our elementary school days at STM and high school years at BNI. She was one of the most brightest and most intelligent persons I’ve known. A small group of us quietly competed to get the best grades and she often finished at the top. This private rivalry motivated us not just then but throughout life. While it’s been decades since that time, I will hold those memories dear to my heart and always be thankful for having known her. Rest easy friend.

I am so sad to read the message posted at the Las Vegas MLS this morning. Deanne touched my heart with her warmth and beaming spirit and she challenged my head with her high-minded thinking and thoughtfulness. She was not only a client of our company, she became a friend. And her advice to me when I would ask her was most always spot on. We will miss her, along with her happy spirit and big smiles. Our thoughts are with her family.

Denise shared this story about D: "I just keep remembering a presentation she did at st. Tom’s when we were kids. I don’t remember what the presentation was on but she put on different hats. 🎩 I was amazed that she had so much courage, I could never do something like that. I always think about that presentation whenever I think of her. It makes me smile."
