Denise was born in Salem, Ore., on June 1, 1960, to Robert and Doris Ebenal.
Denise was a fun-loving person who loved her family and friends. Her sense of humor was alive and well until the day she died. She is now with the angels in the arms of her mom. She will be missed by us all.

There will be a service to celebrate Denise’s life on Saturday at 1:30 p.m. at St. Michaels church in Palmer.
Those we love don’t go away,
They walk beside us every day,
Unseen, unheard, but always near,
Still loved, still missed and very dear.
