Ms. Debbie was a nice person. I can remember when I was moving into my new home in 2010, she bought like tons of boxes for me to start packing. I also remember taking two days off from work to move and came back to find a present full of Yankee candles (Spring Fling Sampler Candle Pack) along with a wonderful card on my desk. To this day, I only used two candles and the two are still in my possession in which I will use to remember her by. I was deeply shocked when I heard the news but at the same time, I believe Ms. Debbie is in a better place. I will continue to pray for her son and her family for strength. R.I.P Ms. Debbie!

To Collin, and the rest of the Shanholtz family...It is with great sadness that I hear of Debbie's passing. We had so many good times at Kennedy, and I will never forget those times. So glad we had an opportunity to talk not too long ago. Rest peacefully with Jesus Debbie.
