Debbie, I miss my dear sister so much. How is it possible that it's been five years since you left us. Buddy & Lizzie are with you now - Buddy your eternal protector, and Lizzie the howler - all of you are in eternity now. Love you forever.

Happy heavenly birthday my beautiful friend. I miss you !!

Happy heavenly birthday my dearest Debbie, Not a day goes by I don´t think of you. I can´t begin to tell you how much I miss you. Today we would be together like we always were on your birthday whether it was lunch, dinner or even if I just came to sit with you at the hospital like last year. But this year it´s all different. I can only celebrate you in spirit. John is having a beautiful celebration for you today to honor you. I´m sorry I had to miss it since I´m out of town but you...

Debbie was a patient of mine as well as a friend. She was originally my banker at Chase Bank at least 20 years ago but evolved Into a dear friend.
She was giving towards all the people in her life, and was a great sister, daughter, and Mom to all her dogs!
She fight incredibly bravely against this terrible disease, and maintained her dignity throughout.
She was above all a kind person, and not only I but anyone she came in contact with will miss her greatly.
Rest in...

I met Debbie by trying to locate someone in my area (Central Illinois near St Louis) to rescue a lab. I made a few phone calls to different breeders in our area and one of them gave me her name. We instantly hit it off. We didn’t talk very often but when we did, we realized how much we had in common. She was a kind, carrying, funny and dog loving person who I could call my friend. She taught me how to help those animals that couldn’t help themselves and I will forever be grateful. I will miss...

I knew Deborah from our college days and we remained friends through my marriage and birth of my children. Deb’s holiday parties at her place on Lincoln Avenue were not to be missed! After our kids came and my family moved father away I didn’t get to see Deb often and I’ve missed her and thought of her so often these past years-her laugh, big booming and infectious and her genuine care and outlook toward life. I remember how much she loved her granddad and family and how she loved spending...

Debbie, What I wouldn't give to tell you one more time how lucky I was to have worked with you. You were nothing short of amazing. Your smile, your disposition, EVERYONE you came in contact with loved you. You were so kind and genuine and I will forever be thankful. Your absence will leave a huge void in my heart. I miss you dearly and i was so very fortunate for the time we spend working together. Tony

Dear Debbie,
This is very hard for me to sit here and write to you. I never wanted this day to come. From the moment we met one another we instantly hit it off. You were the sister I never had. You became one of my BFF’s. We all loved you. You treated my daughters like they were family. You were always so proud of them and happy with their career choices. You were proud with their choices of their husbands and just loved getting to know our little grandson Joey...
