Dana was an awesome cousin. She will be dearly missed! Dana was always there in time of celbration and in saddnes for my parents Verta and Clark Chandler. Her dedication to her volunteer work brought many smiles and comfort to our troops in harms way. She beamed with Joy in sharing moments about her daughter's family and grandchildren. Prayers with Hugs and Love, Cousin Beckie
