DeeDee was one of my best friends in high school and afterwards as well. We got in a lot of trouble together. I'll never forget the time we got busted for drinking and smoking while we were on a track trip to South Texas. DeeDee, Vikie Welch and I set a lot of track and field records at Tascosa (we were the first year to have a track team, so there were no records before us).
DeeDee had a very successful career at the AQHA (for one) and at home.
DeeDee had a wonderful heart that she devoted to her "cowboy" Lucky Lundegreen and her two boys Rowdy and Rusty. She got to know her first granddaughter Lexy before she died.
I always came to the reunions with DeeDee so this will be the first one that I will attend without her. I miss you DeeDee!!!
