Sincere condolences to the family of Dee. I worked with Dee at General Electric in the 1980's as one of my first big girl jobs. Dee was such a delight and helpful person to me. I believe her work ethic and personality helped to create in me who I am today.

Doloris and I shared 51 years of friendship. She was a wonderful friend and her family was her greatest joy. I will miss her dearly but I know she has gone to a better place.

Sweet Dee supported me during my college experience at 53. She was a good friend to my mother Barbara Bell. I have many fond memories of them together.🩷 in Heath. Prayers for your family.

It is with sadness I hear of Dee's passing. We worked together at GE. She was the front office conductor of the movement of people going in and out of the plant. She was always on top of everything in her domain. I am sorry for your loss.
