I grew up in Los Alamos with Deborah. Tommy, remember me -I Iived in Jaconita with Bonnie Jean in 1977. Deborah, Maurine and Bernie lived in the trailer. Then Deborah and I were next door neighbors in Los Alamos. I have the best of memories of horse back riding, dancing and partying with life long friends. You ALL are my past - my history - the BEST of my life's memories in the best of times. You and Deborah are cherished memories. Thank you. Holding you in thought and prayer.

Dear Herrera Family,

My sincere condolences to all of you. I was privileged to work with Debbie and during the time we worked together we had a wonderful partnership. She was the one of the finest, funniest people I ever knew and I was lucky to know her.

Debbie was one of the best people I have ever worked with. She brightened every day that I was around her and I am grateful that we became friends. I will always remember her infectious laugh and wonderful sense of humor.
