I met Dee about 20 years ago, when she took our family picture. (Shirley Somero's family) she was the sweetest, spirit filled lady! I'm so sorry for your loss, please know you are in our thoughts and prayers! God's peace!! Ken and Tricia Matson
My sweet Dee....I'm really not sure that even the best of words can truly describe your heart and spirit and what a special person you were to so many people. You are truly one of the kindest and most loving people I have ever known. Working with you at Wellington Regional was so inspiring. You were always there for me...days that I had to work late on a tough case...you would stay with me and try to help me to get it done so I wouldn't have to leave alone when it was dark outside. When I had tough days, you would always be there to comfort me through your Godly spirit and words. You were always a ray of sunshine to our department and we all loved and admired that. I will miss you dearly, but I know that you are in the arms of Jesus, healthy, strong and happy. I love you so much. Until we meet again...❤️✝️️😇🙏🏾
Our sincere sympathy to Dee's family. We are so sorry for your loss!! May The Lord be your comfort and strength!
Dee was such a sweet, special person I am honored to have known. I will miss our facebook games, and her photography...especially the Lake Worth church weekly pictures!
Dee's victory is won! Psalm 23 "...and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever."

Dee was my dear friend and co-worker. I met her in 1989 at WRMC-we were both young nurses then, eager to help the sick and suffering. I returned to WRMC in 1999 as a Case Manager and was again assigned to Dee's floor where she was the Charge Nurse. Although I had not seen her in ten years we became fast friends again. I noticed outwardly she had not aged at all, but the diabetes was taking a toll on her health. She worked tirelessly even when her blood sugar was out of control-either too low or too high. She adjusted her insulin doses accordingly but the disease was winning. Dee was a fighter and determined she was not going to give up the profession she loved to this illness. We had an opening in Case Management which seemed to be a revolving door in the early 2000's. I was thrilled that she accepted the position and I would be her preceptor. I taught her about Case Management and in turn she taught me about having faith in God. Dee and I shared and office for fourteen years. During which time we added other members to our work family including Peg, Jodie, Sharida, Deidre, Palmire, Karen, Denise, Lori, Margaret, Tina, Barbara and Iris. We were the driving force at WRMC that moved patients in and out of the facility like a well oiled machine for a lot of years. When the outcomes were good we celebrated the victories. When the outcomes were not so favorable, we cried together and supported each other. We all shared a lot of life together with Dee and I am so grateful to have called her my friend. I especially remember the fun we had at our Case Management holiday parties and birthdays. And like any family, we shared our losses as well. I will miss our Dee and was angry with God for taking her from us. I prayed that he would end her suffering. I understand that Dee had the best physicians and nurses caring for her in Miami, but still they were only human and had limits. God had the only solution to making her whole again. I will continue to be strong in my faith as you taught me Dee. I am praying for your family and friends that we may all find peace. I will miss you dear friend-until we meet again. Luv u Jules😘
My darling Dee, I will forever miss you! You were my strength when I was weak. You taught me so many life lessons.. You loved my children as your own. No problem was ever too big, you would hear my concerns and direct me to pray! You protected me naturally! I will miss our talks! Your radiant smile, and your ability to see the good in everyone.. Your love for your husband and son shined through your heart! Your love for life pierced through your soul! I know you are in heaven looking down and smiling! I am a better person because of you! This is not goodbye but rather see you later! I love you.. Your legacy lives on forever..
P.s.
Gaby cried her little heart out.. She knew how much you loved her and have been there from birth!
Rest in peace my Angel..

It's so hard to believe you are gone, but I know you are in a better place. We will never forget you. -1 Corinthians 6:14: And God hath both raised up the Lord, and will also raise up us by his own power. Amen and Amen. See you on the other side, my friend. ~Lori
