A bright smile and loving heart. I will miss you. Until we meet again. I love you.

Prayers of peace and comfort to the Hickey family. My mother Nancy Lindsey and Denise were good friends. When Denise was GR Rep to Scotland in AR, she, Lou Turner, Mom and I went to their Gr Chapter and visited local Chapters and had an incredible time! My fav memory is when Denise wanted to get a pic of the herd of sheep and their new lambs that was across from where we were staying. And before she could even cross the road, that herd ran in the opposite direction like they were running from a fire. Loved the look on her face! She was and is the most beautiful spirit I have known, Much love - Liz Lindsey
Condolences to the family, she will be missed, she was a great friend
