I was a regular customer of Deanna's when she
and Donna had their nail salon. We had so much
fun during those appointments and talked about all sorts of things. Even though I haven't seen
her in a number of years now, I remember her
fondly and am devastated at the news of her passing. My heart goes out to her family and my prayers are with them. She was a lovely person and a beautiful soul. She will be deeply missed
by many. God Bless.

Rest easy, Deana. I am thankful that our paths crossed, if only for a short time at MAC. You were a beautiful and kind soul, always with a smile and kind word. I am sending prayers for your loved ones tasked with finding a way forward without your physical presence. You were a true gift.

Deana, goodbye old friend. You touched so many lives with your big heart - you will be missed greatly. So glad to have shared laughs, complained about work related issues at MAC, and times at the gym where we thought we weren't going to make it through the exercise class. Will be keeping your family in my prayers.

I had the pleasure of sitting right next to Dean pretty much all 4 years of homeroom at Cardinal O'Hara. She was such a sweetheart, always with that big beautiful smile and able to put others in a good mood. Her star shone brightly in this life, and she will be greatly missed. My deepest condolences to her husband, parents, and other family.

My prayers and condolences go out to all family and friends at this difficult time. I have known Deana for 6 years while working with her. She always had a big smile and was always a great conversationalist. From her explaining how her lift kit didn't fit on her Jeep to her thinking my son was a girl, lol. We always would laugh about that. You shining light was cut short way too soon. You will be missed ❤

Chris and Derosa's: I loved Deana so much. She was a sweet big hearted person whom I loved talking too. I loved talking to her about our dogs, Richie and of course Chris. She loved her family and she was devoted. She would do anything for anyone without hesitation. I called her Little Bit because she was so tiny. She always just laughed. We had a lot In common and she was easy to talk too and always told me to call her if I ever wanted to talk. God has her now and has big plans for her. She is never far from you. Her Soul is always with you. Memories you have will last s lifetime. Chris: stay strong. You have family and friends to guide you and be there for you. We are all here for you! Love you Little Bit!
