It was my pleasure to work with Debbi in the school system for a number of years. She was always a hard worker and loving towards other people. Many children, teachers, and others were blessed to know her. So sorry for your loss.

I have great memories of time spent with Debbi while at Marshall and later on - card games, picnics, trips to King's Island & Myrtle Beach.
My sympathies to her family.

Its hard to find the right words to say in times like this, I have felt this pain and sadness of loosing my Mom,my sister,my brothers until I was told you don't loose them when you know where they are. Walk the golden streets dear lady.
