Dear Tom, Marilyn, Jim, Dolores, Charles and families.
I was so sad to hear about Debora. She was like a Guardian Angel to me when we were growing up in Brasil. I am reminded of a time when there was a sudden downpour and everyone was running to get out of the rain. Since I could never run fast, she came running to me with an umbrella to help me get out of the rain. This is just one example of the compassionate and loving person that she was. Now she is rejoicing in Heaven with the Lord and so many other loved ones that have gone on before and I know we all look forward to seeing her again one day. She will be geatly missed.
Love,
Marsha "Killcrease" Crawford

To the Pope family,
I would like to express my sympathies to all of you at the loss of your daughter, sister, aunt. I remember Deb from when we were children at Vianópolis. We also spoke a few times on the phone a couple of years ago. I'm sure she will be greatly missed. Abraços, Dilys Rees

I am sorry I only had the pleasure to meet Debora a few times. My dear friend Terry Cohen was very close to Debora and he spoke of her often, over the decades we have been friends. I spoke with Debora as recently as four weeks ago, at a mutual friend's birthday party. I perceived her to be a very warm, kind, and intelligent woman. I was lead to give her my home number and ask her to call me soon to "do lunch". Tragically, that luncheon between us will have to wait till we meet up in heaven.
My heart truly goes out to all her family and friends who are grieving over her untimely demise. I am sure they all have fond, heartfelt memories of her to keep in their hearts forever. Debora may be gone from this world as we know it, but certainly will never be forgotten.

Dear Pope family and especially Tom & Marilyn, our hearts were saddened to know that she had to leave you all. But this is only a short get away for her, since we all we be together in eternity. May our kind and loving Lord comfort and sustain you during this time. (from Timothy & Faith Brennan)

To the Pope Family,
Carol and I would like to once again express our deepest sympathies to all of you regarding the sudden loss of a dear daughter, sister and aunt. Jim it was wonderful having you as "Best Man" at our wedding. As you remember your sister Debora was a childhood sweatheart of mine when our parents lived and served as missionaries in Brazil. Not having seen Debora as an adult she is still beautiful, vibrant, fun-loving teenager in our memories. As has already been expressed by others we also will miss her and trust that God through His Word, Holy Spirit, and the fellowship of family and friends will comfort your hearts now and in the days to come.

I met Debora only a few times in the past 2 years, while visiting a friend who was her neighbor. She seemed like a very friendly and kind lady. My deepest condolences to her family!

Words cannot express the shock when the phone call came in. I have known Deb for many years and have had the privilege to work with her closely this last year. We not only shared our business life over that time, but became the dearest of friends. My heart hurts deeply and I miss her everyday. She was a true friend and the kindest person you would ever want to know. I still don't believe it. I had the honor to work hand and hand with her on her final design project and know she would have been so proud of our finished product. I will miss her. My deepest sympathy for the family in this horrific loss. All my love, Nicole Roberts

I loved Deb's Spirit, spunk and big heart. calling her kind would be an understatement. She gave everything she had to everyone when ever she could.
I loved her and was very glad that she was my friend. See you on the other side, Deb!

I was lucky enough to know Deb through business. She was always so much fun to see. Always a smiling face and great wit, with the best personality. She made a difference by being here, and I know many friends besides myself that are so sad now. I will pray for her and all of us left behind that miss her already.

I worked with Deb while she was designing the Silver Star Casino in Choctaw, MS. She was a joy to be around with her infectious laugh and her jolly personality. I am so saddened to hear of her passing. The world will be a sadder place without her. Our family wants you to know that you are in prayers.

I will always remember Deb dancing on a patio in Mexico, excited to buy her "Man of Steel" at a fabulous Atlanta auction, her talking out loud in the movies, her laughter, and mostly her Design Junkie passion for her work.
She was fascinating with stories of Brazil, and she lit up when she spoke of it. She spoke lovely Portuguese, and we planned to visit Rio one day. My whole family fell in love with her, My late husband Carter was her "dance partner". She will not be as missed as I thought, as I will surely think of her every day.
We love you Deb, this broke our hearts,

In short :God needed to do some renovation of Heaven to make room for new soles and fix up alot of other older properties and looked around earth and need a wonderful Lady and more so an incrediable Interior Designer to do the job and most important stay within a budget. So he took our beloved Debora and but her to work. She will always be in our hearts until some day we will meet again. We love you and miss you Deborah. Terry, Bart and Anne Cohen.
