Deidre A. McClure

Deidre Ann Caldwell, now McClure, passed away on the morning of January 23, 2024 after a long illness. She was born on July 11, 1949 in Kansas City, Missouri, the youngest of three children of William and Bess Caldwell. She was very proud to have won Best Dressed in the Easter Parade on the Country Club Plaza in 1970 as a model for Patricia Stevens.

Dede was energetic and fun-loving throughout her life. She laughed easily and sought humor in every kind of situation. She loved animals and had two treasured dogs, Meeko, and later, Milo. She is survived by her partner, Ron Deutmeyer, and her daughter, Delana Lee.

In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions are suggested to Wayside Waifs or the Humane Society.
