Denise Stoddard

Denise was born on June 18, 1962 in Dansville, New York to parents Dennis and Joan Musshafen. On January 9, 2012 she went to be with her Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

She was one of the most compassionate people that you could ever know and her heart was a heart devoted to others. She loved to serve and help others and that was evident to all that met her. Both at work and at home she put the needs of others first. Many times she opened her home and her heart to a friend in need. She worked tirelessly for her family and made sure they had what they needed. She loved to serve her customers too. When Denise and Chris were out they would always meet someone she knew and they always stopped to talk to Denise and tell her how much she was cared for and appreciated.

Denise and Chris met at church in 1992 and not long after that fell in love and were married in April of 1993. She had a son, Christopher James who Chris loves as his own. In September of 1994 they added to their family with their beautiful daughter Elizabeth Grace. In February of 2002 they were delighted with another son Matthew Scot. Denise loved us deeply and though she is home with her Lord she will always be in our hearts.

She is survived by her loving husband Christopher Stoddard, son Christopher James Faith, daughter Elizabeth Grace Stoddard and son Matthew Scot Stoddard, parents Dennis and Joan Musshafen, sisters Mary Kuhn and Luann Montemarano as well as many loving extended family and friends.

The family will receive friends on Friday, January 13, 2012 from 6-8 p.m. at Allen Family Funeral Options. There will be a memorial service to celebrate Denise's life on Saturday, January 14, 2012 at 10:00 a.m. at Plano Bible Chapel, 1900 Shiloh Rd., Plano, Texas.
