Obituary
Denice A. Carlson, born June 17, 1956 went home to be with the Lord on June 8, 2005, after a long and courageous battle with cancer. Denice had a warm smile and was loved by all who knew her. Denice was born in Kansas City, Kansas on June 17, 1956, and moved to Woodland, California at the age of two weeks. She was raised in Woodland and spent her childhood as an active member in the Young Life Groups.
After graduating in 1974 she married and became an Army wife, traveling extensively and spending many years in Germany. She was active in various churches where she was known as Miss Denice to the many children she taught in Sunday school. Not only did she teach young children in Sunday school, she also spent many years home schooling her own children. After moving to and making her life in Denton, she became very involved in the Southmont Baptist Church where she was employed for many years as the Church Secretary.
