Denise Kay Evans, 70, of Manheim, formerly of Delaware, passed away on November 29, 2021 at Lancaster General Hospital. Born in Lancaster, she was the daughter of the late Albert Dulio Sr. and Lorraine (Andrews) Dulio. Denise was also the loving wife of the late Charles S.

A graduate of Honolulu Barber School and Empire Beauty School, Denise worked as a hairdresser and cosmetologist for a number of years. Recently, she was a sales associate at Furniture Barn, retiring after 12 years, and enjoyed being a part-time jewelry sales associate at Macy's after retirement.

Denise was heavily involved with veterans' organizations with her husband and is a lifetime member of the VFW Post 1463 and a member of the American Legion, both as a member of the ladies auxiliary, and enjoyed socializing with friends and playing skill games. Denise was a lucky gambler and would often play slots, Bingo, and Bargo. She also enjoyed scrapbooking and shopping.

Denise loved her family and cherished the time she spent with them. She was close with her daughters and they would often go out to eat and hang out together. She and her husband were inseparable and she considered him the love of her life. They often would travel to Delaware to see friends, going to the beach at Ocean City, MD, and dance and party together.
