Deb,
You will be so missed by all your friends here at work. We have thought about you frequently and have prayed for you daily. You touched our hearts and we will miss your wonderful smile and the way you took your work so seriously. So many of our contractors looked forward to working with you in the evenings because they knew they would have your full attention and be treated like a "real person" not just a #. Rest in peace sweet Deb, your energy and love with resonate within all the lives you have touched.
