After all the years, Tripp will never be the same without Nurse Debbie. She worked longer, harder, and sweeter than anyone at camp. She was the glue that held the Nurses together. If you were lucky enough to be her friend, you were lucky indeed. I will cherish the many summers we shared.

I'll always remember Debbie as a kind person who always has a smile on her face which always put a smile on the face of others and is perhaps the nurse who had to deal with me in the health centre the most at tripp lake camp over the last 9 summers which leads me to say a massive thank you to you Debbie for all the help you have given me over the last 9 summers. Thoughts and prayers go out to all of Debbie family and friends with all my Tlc love

Dear Earnestine and Family,

In my past four summers working at Tripp Lake Camp I have been fortunate enough to get to know Debbie. I really enjoyed all the conversations we had and learning about her life and family. She was a warm, kind and caring lady who was always happy to help no matter what the situation, bringing comfort to those who visited her. She will be greatly missed at camp by both staff and campers; it won't be the same without her. My thoughts are with you all.

Dear Earnestine and Family-
I am sending my deepest sympathy to you all for the loss of Debbie. I worked as a cook for the summer of 2013 and had the chance to work early in the season. Debbie and Earnestine both were very warm and welcoming to me as a first year employee as well as kind and caring through out the summer. The loss of Debbie is very great. My thoughts and prayers are with you.
Sincerely
Hope Becker

I want to express my deepest condolences to Debbie's family for your loss. Debbie was such a kind and compassionate woman and a model of quiet strength for all of us. I am honored to have known her. You are in my prayers.

Nurse Debbie was a gentle, caring soul at Tripp Lake Camp! Summer after summer I could depend on seeing her smile and know she would deliver care to any girl or staff with nothing but kindness. Camp won't be the same without Nurse Debbie. She will be missed.

Earnestine, I do hope you'll come back to camp. We love you so much!

Dear Ernestine and family,
All of the Greenwalds send you our love and sympathy. Debbie was such an important person to both our family and the TLC family. She always treated our daughters with such kindness, making them feel special even before they were campers. Nothing bothered Debbie. Through all the daily stresses of taking care of so many people, she always did it professionally with a smile on her face. We will all miss her dearly, but be grateful knowing that she touched the...

Dear Earnestine and Family,
I have attended Tripp Lake as a counselor for four summers and Nurse Debbie touched my heart with compassion and fondness. She always made me feel comfortable whenever I had to visit the health center and told me of her family and life many times. She will be greatly missed.

I know well, in all earnest hope, that there are many young, ambitious girls that will grow to carry on her tender-hearted legacy. May brilliant flowers sprout from her good deeds. You will be missed; my compassion and prayers to those she left behind.
