Denise Denton, 50, of Alma, Arkansas unexpectedly went to be with her Heavenly Father December 27, 2020 at her home.
Denise was born in Fort Smith, Arkansas on August 1, 1970 to Dan and Marie Bartlett.
She was a daughter, sister, wife, mother and grandmother. She loved with all she had in her. Over the years she took in several kids when they needed a listening ear or a place to lay their head to rest awhile. She and her husband Rodney were foster parents for four plus years and it has been said that “Denise was the best foster mother I ever had.” Denise is survived by her husband of 26 years, Rodney, daughters Michelle Denton (Jon Smith), Chae Ledbetter (Noah), Hailee Denton, and Tara Denton, sons Michael Denton and Blayde Denton, 6 grandchildren, her parents, sister Angila James, brothers Tim Bartlett (Naomi), and Joey Bartlett (Nicole) along with lots of family and friends who will miss her dearly.
