She was the oldest daughter of Robert and Thelma Gibbs and older sister to Robert Gibbs and Rebecca Oakley. She is survived by her children; Jim and Sandy Law of Dayton OH, Kevin Carl Fisher and Sandra Hargett of Fort Worth TX and RonDee Fisher of Dallas TX, grandchildren, Tony Law, Kevin Cody Fisher and Kaden Noah Fisher and Tara May, her teacup poodle.

For all who she called family, DeeAnn made feel welcome and at home in her presence. DeeAnn was a well-rounded road traveler. She was a lover of animals and accepting of all people. She was a great cook and baker. She was quick to try new recipes and generous in sharing her favorites with her family and friends. She was a true patriot and most of all she was love. She had a great appreciate of nature and until her last days, she believed in conservation of our forestry and of our great country's resources. She had spent a few years as a volunteer forest ranger in New Mexico along with a full 20+ year career in civil service.
DeeAnn loved her children and grandchildren. Her joy came from within and in her most recent years had built a stronger faith in Christ. Her passing was sudden but we are consoled in knowing she was ready to be received by our Lord.
12 Therefore, as God's chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience. 13. Bear with each other and forgive one another if any of you has a grievance against someone. Forgive as the Lord forgave you. 14. And over all these virtues put on love, which binds them all together in perfect unity.
Colossians 3:12-14
