Mike, So sorry to hear about the loss of your beloved wife. Debbi was such a special person and made such a huge impact on my life as my CCD and Confirmation teacher at St. Mary's Catholic Church Greenleaf. She is the reason I am a CCD teacher today. She was such a pleasure to talk to and be around, she had a way of making everything brighter and more fun! She was unique and brought out/embraced the unique qualities in others. She will be missed and fondly remembered! Please know my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family at this difficult time.

so sorry to hear the passing of Debbie. I fondly remember her as my hair stylist when she managed the Chatterbox Boutique(it was in the backyard of my childhood home)as a young child up until the day I got married in Oct 1991(unfortunately I have been a widow myself now for 12 years this Jan 2016) Debbie was a very kind, friendly & compassionate woman. She will be sadly missed by all who knew her.
Mike & family, you are in my thoughts & prayers. God Bless You !!
