Deana we love and miss you!
July 6, 1981- September 3, 2007
(Deana and her adorable son Parker)Deana did many wonderful things after High School. She attended Eastern AZ College where she studied music and participated and excelled in orchestra and choir. In 2002 she had her beautiful son, Parker Scott Fallers, whom she has said, is her greatest accomplishment. She lived in Thatcher for several years before also living in such places as Utah and the valley. Some of her favorite things to do were to be with her sisters, her family, her son and friends. She loved tennis, art, modeling and photography, as well as many, many other things. She will be remembered for her great smile(and beauty!),her many talents, enthusiasm about life and her devotion to her friends and family, especially her son Parker. Sadly, Deana passed from this life on September 3, 2007. If you have any memories you would like to share on here for her family and mother, please leave a comment!
Aunt DeAnna and Parker.
