Deana Patrice Heard

Deana Patrice Heard, a radiant soul born on July 28, 1984, graced this world for forty precious years before departing on August 30, 2024. She was a stalwart of warmth, kindness, and love, known for her truly caring nature that wrapped around friends and family like a well-weaved quilt.

Deana had a magnetic spirit, her outgoing personality drawing in and making them feel cherished and valued. Her laughter echoed in the hearts of those who knew her, a melody that would resonate long after her presence left the room. With an infectious smile that could brighten even the cloudiest days, she brought joy to every gathering, every interaction, and every moment shared.

Among the simple pleasures of life, Deana found immense joy in the art of playing Bingo, an activity she approached with both grace and excitement. Each game was not merely a chance to win, but an opportunity to foster connections, create memories, and relish in the camaraderie that came alive within the halls of her favorite venues.

To know Deana was to experience her genuine passion for life, her ability to infuse the ordinary with magic. She possessed an innate ability to see the best in people, making everyone feel special and seen. As we bid farewell to a beloved friend, sister, daughter, and human being, we carry forward the lessons of love, kindness, and connection she imparted.

Though the world feels dimmer without her, Deana’s spirit will continue to light the path for those she leaves behind, forever cherished in our hearts and memories.
