Dear Mark, Zach, Krista and Erica,
I'm very sorry that we were away and unable to attend Denise's memorial this week. Over the past forty years I was fortunate to get to know Denise as a friend and consider myself so lucky to have had the opportunity to enjoy a few lunches with her and others during her final months.
As always, she was the life of the table - full of family stories, great memories and colorful political banter!
In spite of the many health challenges she faced her strength, faith and humor always prevailed. There are just no words to adequately describe how much admiration and respect we all hold for her in carrying out her courageous battle. She is a heroine and Patrick and I will miss her dearly.
Our sincerest sympathy.
Joan Brennan
