Denise graduated from Bel air High School in 1976.  She was employed for 19 years at Becton Dickinson in Hunt Valley, MD before moving to Sandpoint, ID in 1997.  She worked her way from the ground up at Coldwater Creek where she loved her job in Inventory Planning for catalog.  After leaving Coldwater Creek in 2010, she pursued a position with Bonner General Health in the Rehab Dept., another job that she dearly loved.  It was always because of the people she worked with that she loved her job so much. Her greatest enjoyments in life were her husband, Rick and her dog Daisy Mae.  She loved to garden and had the greenest of thumbs.  To honor her love of flowers we ask that you send flowers all colors and types other than Lilies (She was allergic).  All flowers afterward will go to patients at Bonner General, Life Care Center, Luther Park and assisted Living.  Any flowers that are perennials or bulbs should be planted at the healing garden at Bonner General.  Donations can be made in her name to Celebrate Life in Sandpoint, ID or Community cancer Services in Sandpoint.
