Debbie and I were classmates at BHS. She always had a smile on her face and was ready to have fun. She was a delight to know. Heaven has another flower blooming.

To Debbie's family, her children, sister, husband, and all ... I send you my heartfelt condolences for the extreme loss you are experiencing. Your Mother, Sister, and Wife was very dear to me and always will be. There aren't enough words to share all the memories I have of our times together. Her family was my family and mine was hers. I think I will remember her the most from the camping trip to Colorado that her Mom and Dad so graciously invited me to go. We laughed and played like little children. I will always know the biting cold of a mountain stream when you wash your feet in its clear and pure waters ... because of Debbie ... because of her love. Debbie, I know you hear me. Now it is your job to mend the angel's wings and hem their garments of gold. I suspect they will enjoy the bits of lace you will add to everything you touch. The part of you still here with us, and especially your family, will live on in our memories and in our hearts forever. The best part of you is flying with the Angels. Godspeed dear friend.

I work at the nursing home where she spent her last days. It was a true joy getting to know her. She had many wonderful story’s about her life she shared with me. When she came in we were working on an art project. She wanted to work on it and created a beautiful piece of art. Afterward she was so proud of what she created.
