Support Burnell through the passing of Denise.

Denise April Wildasin, 67, unexpectedly passed from this life on Monday, December 9, 2024, at her residence due to complications from Acute Myeloid Leukemia. Denise was a lifelong resident of New Freedom. She was the loving wife to Burnell Wildasin and they were married on April 19, 1975. She saw many changes to the town over her lifetime, and was proud of this small town. She was very active in the community. She was New Freedom Borough Republican Committeewoman and recently became a member of the Southern York County Recreation Commission, which amused those who knew her well. She took joy in seeing some old traditions revived and new businesses thrive in her hometown. Denise was a beautiful woman and a beautiful soul. She was strong, intelligent, witty, creative, loving, strong-willed and loyal. She was a beloved friend and mentor to many. She loved her animals as if they were her children. Her loss leaves a hole in so many hearts that can never be filled. Her loving friends and family have banded together and are hoping to alleviate the financial burden of her passing while Burnell grieves the loss of the love of his life.

There will be a service in the future; please check back to Denise’s personal memorial web page at HartensteinCares.com for further details. The family is being assisted by Hartenstein Funeral & Cremation Care, Inc. of New Freedom.
