Thank you Dee for the wonderful memories my family has of you. The close and loving friendship you shared with our mother brought us joy. Watching the two of you with your red hat ladies lunches, sharing family updates and enjoying life a little more knowing the two of you had such a bond. You will be missed and the memory of you and our mom will be held in each of our hearts. Much love to the family Dee loved so much - you are also in our hearts and prayers!

RIP Dee. Heaven will be a better place with you in it. When Dr. Yobbagy wanted to be sure a new service that our radiology department offered was done well, he would ask Dee to "volunteer ". Assist Dr. Koh in the DSA lab?, ask Dee. Help Dr. Koh with our new ultrasound service?, ask Dee. We need someone to greet patients and their families?, who else but Dee. Dee was an excellent radiology technologist always eager to learn and improve her skills. She was respected by her colleagues and will be deeply missed. W. Hunter Vaughan M.D.

Dee was amazing, had great memories with her and my cousins Brian and Karen. Always had a smile on her face and great stories to share about my mom and the madigan clan. I was in town for a short period of time and re-introduced myself to Patty, Brian's wife and Dee walked around the corner and the look on her face was priceless. WE had a brief memorable visit . Dee is in a much better place now reunited with her husband Ron and the rest of our crazy Madigan family Rest in Peace.
