    Desi was a joy to be around, her humor was so funny,no matter what was going on in her life. She was always uplifting to all that had the pleasure of knowing her. She will be so greatly missed by all that had the honor of knowing her. She is in God’s hands now. No more pain and no more disappointments. Rest well my friend.

    Dear Girls, I have many memories of spending time with your Mom when we both had little girls and boys. . Playing , snacking and talking for hours , sharing dreams and ideas about our families . I know this is a big loss for your family and I will continue to keep you in my thoughts and prayers for strength and comfort . In my mind Desi will be among the best daughter , wife , mother snd grandmother I could ever know . She was truly a model for anyone about loving others. Love Katie
