Denise was born in Elko, Nev., on Feb. 24, 1957. She was a graduate of Mountain Home High School and made Mountain Home her home.

Her hobbies included "collecting," cleaning and barbequing.

As well as a mother of four boys, which took the strength that most could not match, she had the kindest heart and was willing to help people in need, even random strangers she just met.

"Niecey" is how most will remember her and for a few others, "black lady with an attitude, but with a huge heart."

She is survived by her sons, Erich, of Mountain Home, Anthony, Jason and Erihn of Boise, and two grandchildren.

The family wishes to thank all the families that have help us during this difficult time.
