Not sure what to say?





I didn't even know her name but I liked her very much. She used to wait on me at the store. Always happy, always helpful, and always so full of life. Deborah was clearly special and I know she will be missed very much. My heart goes out to her family.

It is with great sadness that I write this. I will miss her friendly, smiling, and welcoming face each time I saw her. She had a special way of making people feel comfortable. As my husband was fighting cancer she was especially empathetic of my plight. I'm sure she will be terribly missed by Rich and his wonderful family. My love to the Pace's and Deb's mom and her family. What a sad loss for the community.
