Dee had many accomplishments in her life. She worked at Texas Instruments, was a hair stylist and a prison guard while living in Texas. She lived in Albuquerque, NM, for a time where she went to school for medical assisting and spent her last 11 years in Salina, KS. She loved music and sang and played piano for her church. She loved painting and was a great writer. She was smart and funny and loved by everyone she met. Dee was a tough little cookie and prevailed no matter what life threw at her. The many health challenges she faced over the last few years finally took her home to her eternal Father. She will be missed.
Dee’s final resting place will be beside her mother at Highland Cemetery in Winfield, KS. A private Celebration of Life was held in Salina.
