9 years ago you left me. It was extremely hard those first 4 years. It was so hard to not be able to call you at 7AM to have our morning talks. The sound of your voice always calmed me. You always knew what to say. If either of us was having an issue we managed to get through it with each others help. But now, even though you are not physically here, I still talk to you daily and know that you are listening. Was that you that woke me at 4:36AM 2 days ago. I heard the 2 knocks and my name being called twice in a row. I feel your presence around me all of the time. The shadow out of the corner of my eye. The front door opening to let in fresh air. Till we are together again Sister! Love you.

I wanted to call you SO bad today, mom. Actually, every day, but today was especially bad. It's been raining for days. Remember how we used to sit and listen to it? I cannot fathom the rest of my life without you. I love and miss you more than I can say. My sweet mama. I hope you're resting.

This is like the third time that I'm gonna attempt to write this.
I miss you so much, and i still can't believe that you're gone.
I'll never forget you aunt debi, there is no way, you were like my other grandma. I never knew it was possible to hurt so much, but apparently it is. I'm trying so hard but sometimes my emotions get the best of me. I never got a chance to tell you how much you ment to me or how much I loved you and it sucks. I just wish I could have you back, and there isn't a day that passes where you don't cross my mind. I just miss you sooo very much!

debie was by far the most coolest person ive ever met in my life, she could relate to anythiny and every story i ever told her. she gave me her own personal nickname as well. i know if she was here she would tell me not to cry or be sad, but just to keep going and be happy. i loved her very much and i know shes watching over all her family and loved ones, shes still in my heart andalways will be
sincerely hers,

I always enjoyed Debi's e-mails - She always made me smile. She was so caring and sweet to me. Debi will be greatly missed, but she will always live in the hearts of those that love her.-Tanya (NY)

Death leaves a heartache no one can heal, love leaves a memory no one can steal....
Debbie, you were such a loving and adoring mother. You were always so sweet to Lysa's friends--even when we were up to no good! You have left a memory in my heart that will never be erased...

"Time is too slow for those who wait, too swift for those who fear, too long for those who grieve, too short for those who rejoice, but for those who love, time is eternity."

A great sadness has drifted into my soul. I will be lost without the friendship and love of Debi. Should there be anything that you need you may call on me and I will do my best to respond to your needs as I believe Debi would do in her presence. My love to all family and friends. Let's keep her memory alive by making contributions to the organizations she supported(ie. Bakersfield Homeless Shelter, and A.S.P.C.A.) Much love, Jackie
