Having lived a short, but spirited life, Deanna was surrounded by loving family and friends at the time of her passing. Deanna always danced to the beat of her own drum and was a free spirit that lived in the moment. She enjoyed listening to loud music and always managed to sing along even louder. Her smile stretched from ear to ear and brought a special light to her eyes, brightening the entire room in turn.
