Deana could brighten any room. Her son, James, told us she could make any dark or gloomy situation better because of her positive attitude. He said Deana passed along her optimism and strength to all who knew her.
In her spare time, Deana loved to help others however she could. She also enjoyed listening to Rascal Flatts and found it therapeutic.
Deana saved 2 lives through organ donation. She will also impact many lives through her tissue donation. If you want us to highlight your donor hero, you can nominate them at LifeShareCarolinas.org/Donor-Families/Honoring-Donors/
