So a little wren tapped the shoulder of Debbra one cool day and whispered the intentions of the earth and the moon.
Debbra danced across the Texas tundra, flew through the falls of a Niagran mist and built a Buffalo out of Indian dreams.
She lived life...swell.
Well...let us not cry, but emote joy for a girl, a gal who took, gave, loved, laughed and affected our souls in the days of her flight and came to rest early.
So we smile. Yes, life is short. Dammit man...here's to Debbra!

hey Katie,
I know there's nothing i can say that hasn't been said already, but I'm sorry you lost your mom, and I can't do much, but if you need anything, let me know...
Your old friend

Dear Katie:
I cannot express how sorry I am that your mother is gone. I, too, lost my mother when I was young. I know that God is granting you the grace you need to learn and grow through this change in your life. You are in my thoughts and prayers.

Dearest Kathryn,
You could not have asked for a better "Mom". I worked with Debbra for years. Within this time-frame, for two different companies. The job may have changed, but Debbra's focus in life never did, it was always on you. I (we) always looked forward to hearing your dear Mother speak of you. Her face would light up and more so than not, the story she told in apparent delight was humorous and with loving thoughts of you. Debbra loved being your Mom. She was a loving, caring person & she was also a lot of fun to be around too. I simply trust she has instilled in you her wonderful ways and will be close to you in heart forever. May God Bless you and hold you dear always.

We once sailed together Debbra, Katie and I.
It may seem you are alone now Katie but she will be with you, keeping the wind in your sails, keeping you on course. Love, Louie

I remember all the times we talked through the fence when I lived on Grote St. and the great times at Assumption. I pray that you are sitting up in heaven looking down on all of us and seeing everyone who cared about you as you touched many a life.

Katie,
We're so sorry to hear about your Mom. I wish I had the right words to ease your pain and sorrow. Always remember you can call or stop by anytime. Sometimes talking to someone who has also faced a loss can be helpful. We're here for you and keep you in our prayers.
Love, Velarde family

Warm Summer Sun
Warm summer sun,
Shine kindly here,
Warm southern wind,
Blow softly here.
Green sod above,
Lie light, lie light.
Good night, dear heart,
Good night, good night.
