Deola will be sorely missed. She brought professionalism and sunshine to our tax office in Bellingham. Generously contributing to our yearly supply of M&Ms and other workplace amenities. I felt she was my 3rd daughter during tax season. As our resident computer expert, many times she sorted out stuck printers, lost programs, how to questions. And I will miss her very much. She shared her boys Alex and Malcolm during visits to the office and spent part of her pregnancy with Malcolm working at the office. What a happy surprise when we found out she had another baby boy. Thank you Deola for being you. A very special person that I can’t see doing without. For your boys and family I don’t know how you’ll get through this. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

I had the privilege of knowing Dee through her volunteer work in Holliston, where we were fortunate to welcome her to our Youth Advisory Board. Dee was incredibly easygoing and carried a wealth of knowledge, offering sharp insights and invaluable guidance that will be deeply missed. While our community mourns this significant loss, none will feel it more profoundly than her family. My heart goes out to all who grieve the passing of such a wonderful mother, wife, friend, and advocate. May her memory forever be a blessing to all who knew and loved her.
