Thinking of your beautiful spirit today and remembering our last conversation. I miss you terribly but know you are resting and watching over us. The kids are growing so fast and the summer will be difficult as years past were spent at your place every weekend going swimming and having a BBQ. I love you Mom.
My beautiful Momma

Deb, My deepest sympathy to your three girls. They were always first in your thoughts. Though we didn't speak daily, as we did when we worked at Cactus, when we did talk, it was as if no time had passed at all. You were always in my thoughts and I knew I could always count on you when needed. I always admired your strength, which you passed on to your girls. I hope that helps them through this time of sorrow. God bless you and your daughters and may he watch over them and their families.

If roses grow in Heaven, Lord
Please pick a bunch for me.
Place them in my Mother's arms
And tell her they're from me.
Tell her I love her and miss her,
And when she turns to smile,
Place a kiss upon her cheek
And hold her for a while.
Because remembering her is easy,
I do it everyday,
But there is an ache within my heart
That will never go away.
Thinking of you, Debbie and your beautiful daughters, with all the love in my heart. Rebecca

Debbie, words cannot express the emptiness I felt in my heart when I found out you left us. I will miss your smile, your laughter, your contagious personality and most of all your friendship.

Missy, Chrissy & Jami, your mom was my best friend. We thought of each other as sisters and called each other "Sis". She always joked that I was the "older" one and she was the better looking one. I will miss her so very much. No one could have had a better friend than Deb. She is gone, but never will be forgotten. My thoughts and love are with all of you. I miss you Sis. Love always, Terry, Waddell, AZ

True friends are the ones who never leave your heart, even if they leave your life for a while. Even after years apart, you pick up with them right where you left off, and even if they die they're never DEAD in your heart.

Mom, this candle burns strong, as you give strength. It provides light, to guide us through this trying journey. As it flickers, you are giving signs that you are near. My life will never be the same without you in it to share, experience, enjoy, celebrate however, I know you are at peace with Doug, Poppy, Nanny and Ryan and you will keep us safe and continue to guide us as you always have. I miss you terribly Momma but I know I must be strong as you would expect nothing else from me. I love you and will miss you until I see those beautiful blue eyes comforting me once again and your warm arms holding me tight ensuring me that everything will be alright. Rest now Momma your work is done here.
Love Always,
Your Daughter- Christina (Tis as you called me)
