DENISE RIBELLES 11/25/1960 to 6/13/2002 June 13, 2002, Denise Ribelles shed the bonds of suffering after courageously battling diabetes and its complications for most of her short but precious life.
When she passed away at the age of 41, she left an empty spot in this world and an aching hole in our hearts - both of which can never be filled. Through her suffering, she taught us compassion. Through her devotion to harmony, she brought us all closer together. Through her courage in the face of adversity, she taught us the true nature of perseverance. Through her unconditional love, she taught us acceptance. Despite our deep sorrow, it's God's turn to reclaim this treasure as his own.
At the end, she was tired, but happy. Meeting her at the gates of God: her dearest friend, Mr. Lonnie McAnnally, her maternal grandparents, Regis and Grant Terrill, her paternal grandparents, Rita Barraquer de Ribelles and Jose Maria Ribelles, as well as other dear family.
