Dear Ivan and Danielle:

My sincere condolences to both of you. In 1986 I entered training college and met all of you as my co-session mates. I then had the privilege to babysit the girls. It was the last time I saw Deanna and heard later when you lived in Brantford her journey in life from Pauline. It was a lifetime ago and I still can see her still as a child. But she grew up to become a beautiful women. She became a trooper to get through these past 4 years and I know she will be missed by many. It was so nice to see pictures that portrays the chapters of her life. My heat goes out to all....prayers embrace all!

Our hearts share in your sorrow Ivan, Dani and Isaiah and Tyler and children. Deanna was a true warrior and fought right up to the last, a real trooper. I thank God that I got to know her a little bit, when the family was in Whitby. Loved hearing Deanna sing. What a beautiful voice she was gifted with. May you all feel the presence of the everlasting Father and the Prince of Peace in these coming days, weeks and on into the future.

Love, Carol Blair

We are so sad to hear the news of Deanna's passing. We didn't have the privilege to meet Deanna, but in reading about her we know she was a very brave and courageous lady. We want to assure you that we have been praying for you all during this very difficult time. While we don't understand life and how it works at times, we do know that the Lord understands and He still cares. May you be strengthen by His grace as you continue your journey of grief and pain. God bless you.

Deanna was such a fabulously strong, loving, caring person. I will remember her will to live and her fight to the end, her beautiful voice and her love for her son, her partner and the whole family. My heart aches for her family who had to say farewell at such a young age, my prayers are with you. I rejoice knowing she is reunited wit her mom and no longer in pain. May God grant you all peace and comfort in these days of loss and sorrow. Sending my hugs

To Ivan, Danielle, Isaiah, Tyler and children

It is with saddened hearts that we send this message. We were totally shocked when we heard about Deeana's passing. She sure was a very brave woman and fought a fight that some people probably never would have. In talking to Deeana on Facebook she was just filled with a positive attitude and had the Faith that she was going to beat this Pancreatic Cancer. But God had other plans for her and called her home to be with him. She is now pain free united with her Momma. So please accept our deepest Sympathy and may God Bless you all in this very difficult time. Love and Prayers
