I have had the privilege of knowing Dee in decent years when she was recommended to us as a cleaner. However, she was never just a cleaner. Dee bought so many gifts to our house; laughter, joy, wisdom, friendship and kindness. Her confidence meant that she had no problem working with me on a Saturday morning .
We shared stories from our lives. Dee was so proud of her husband Ken, her sons and their families. She talked about her extended family with such love and care.
I know Dee’s family always call her correctly Delia, but she always told me to call her Dee. I hope this does not distress family members.
I will always cherish my memories of Dee and the example she gave of love and bravery.
Remembered always by Susan Armstrong
