Rorie Gerschwer wrote a sympathy message

“I just learned of this terrible news regarding Denise's passing. I am so very sorry for your loss. Denise has been a friend to my aunt, JoAnn Nova, for 50+ years. She hired me to work at Bear Stearns - I lasted a day and she did not judge. She also extended a hand to my daughter Stephanie earlier this year. My gosh I truly am sorry and hope you find peace in knowing that she made a tremendous and positive impact in our lives. Sincerely Rorie Gerschwer”
