Ronald Edward, Patricia Lynn, Janet Marie, Victor Sinclar, Deanna Lynn. Her relationship with Jesus Christ was undeniable. One thing about her was that she greatly supported any church she fellowshipped. Her candid spirit and unwavering love for her family were evident (Matthew 5:16). Let your light shine before men so that they may see your good works and glorify your Father, who is heaven. Sissy, Granny, Irene - she was fiery, fashionable, beautiful; with her love for beauty and doing hair, she enjoyed making others beautiful as well. Sissy had a heart of gold. It was evident through her love and care, never turning away anyone who needed her. She did it gracefully, being a hands-on mother, Hands-on grandmother, Hands-on sister, Hands-on aunt, and Hands-on friend, taking in and raising many of her nieces, nephews, grandchildren, and random strangers. Granny always hosted family reunions, Christmas parties, and any opportunities for good food, fun, and fellowship. Throughout her career, she has held various job positions. She was a custodian at the Cherry Hill and Willingboro Township Schools District.

She lived in numerous places, from Los Vegas, Nevada, to Atlanta, Georgia, and too many places in New Jersey, to name. She loved traveling with her sister, nieces, and friends, taking road trips across the country. What people did not know was that "Dee" Loved the casino.
