Ms. Chambers, was a wonderful lady. She will be truly missed.
I did not give my favorite memory the day of the funeral because I did not want to be too pushy. I will do it on line now I will never forget the first time I went to meet her on Mother's Day of 2010 not only did she make me feel like part of the family but all Kent's sibling did as well she had to be an amazing mother because I married her son an he is a great example of her he is an amazing son, husband, an dad. She will be truly missed but remembered Tammy Chambers

Deane was a wonderful person and she is loved and will be missed by NLRSD Special Education Department.
Mrs. Chambers was such a great lady as evidenced by the two sons of hers that I had the honor to know. Randy & Kent, please know that my thoughts and prayers are with you during this time of loss. Each of you were two of the best (and strongest) boys I have ever known and have grown into outstanding young men. I wish I could attend the service, but am out of town this week.
Kim,
I so hated to hear about your mom. It's such a blessing to know she's now worshipping at the throne of God! We're all praying for you and your family.

Prayers and condolences to the Chamber Family. I remember what a good friend your mom was to my mother Judith MacArthur when they worked with each other at the NLRSD. After my own mother passed, Deane was so thoughtful and helpful to my own family during our loss. These two friends are together once again.
I'm so sorry for your loss Lisa, Chris, Tommy & Family. I know she will be greatly missed. Grandma was such a sweet lady.
Well, Heaven has another sweet Angel. Deane was such a sweetheart of a lady and was an angel on earth. I worked with Deane at the school district for almost 20 years. I have some very fond memories of her. Her family will be in my thoughts and prayers.
Deane was a most gracious and kind lady each and every time I spoke with her when we would see each other in the Sherwood area throughout the many years that I knew her. My deepest condolences to her family at this time. May The Lord grant the family comfort and peace now and always.
Kim,
I am so sorry for the loss of your Mom. You, Tommy, Sherry, Randy, Kent and the rest of your family are in my thoughts and prayers. I have such wonderful childhood memories of your Mom and growing up "Chambers" style...never a dull moment! I am so blessed to know all of you and I treasure our long time friendship. Love to all of you.
