It broke my heart to hear of Debbie's passing. She was the real deal - a genuinely good person, with a warm and gentle nature that immediately put anyone at ease. It seems like just yesterday I could hear her infectious giggle in the halls of Battle Creek Central.
My prayers for comfort and peace go out to the family.

Deb was one of the sweetest people I've ever met. Her laugh always made me smile and she will be dearly missed. I couldn't have asked for a better cousin. I always looked forward to her picking me up during my summers in Battle Creek. My condolences to the family.
