We said goodbye to my dearly beloved sister on Tuesday the 18th of August.
I've spent a quiet week grieving and praying - feeling both deep sadness and profound joy at knowing Deanie and Nita are together with the Lord.
We were with her last weekend and she was calm and peaceful and loved all the visits from her loved ones. Her eyes lit up when she saw Louis Dean!
They truly bonded on the roadtrip back home after the Bell Babies were born.
Louis Dean said they laughed all the way and they laughed together again once more last Saturday.
We had such good times together......
Always making memories.
Deanie was so much FUN!
Deanie was so well loved.....
and it comforts my heart to know my sisters are together now.
Deanie was so beautiful!
I'm grateful for all the sibling trips we shared.
We laughed so much!!
Deanie was the one who encouraged me to do the DNA testing to find my father's name.
She always thought I was special and I needed to know where I came from.
Nita nad Mike took me to Kansas City to meet my brother and sister and then the following year, they came to Texas to meet my Texas family.

I have enjoyed looking at my photo memories...
There's special stories behind every one of them.
I have many wonderful memories of my sisters and love all my photo memories.

Deanie was a loving wife, mother, grandmother, aunt, friend and loved by all who knew her.
