Remembering this time last year meeting Debbie's family at Morristown Hospital in the waiting room, each of us visiting loved ones there. Our hearts joined in faith and hope. Such a sweet kindred spirit we share in the family of God. Debbie's legacy is not forgotten. Her works follow her and inspire us all to spread the Good News of Jesus Christ. Bless her memory. Lord, grant comfort and peace to all who loved and miss her. Ele Boyer

Dear Dave and family. Truly Debbie was the most joy filled person I´ve ever known. And when all that joy leaves our presence it hurts! But even our mourning will be turned into joy for we know we will see her again! I met Debbie through my relationship with her sweet mom (Aletha Seltzer). We quickly began a relationship as a result of this treasured connection. Debbie scooped me up like a sister and even more as a spiritual big sis for me. She encouraged me all the time with her gift of...

What a precious woman of GOD Debbie was/is. She was fun, inspiring, helpful, caring, and such an example. We were part of Dave and Debbie´s early years of marriage and of the time when they had their first born son. We will NEVER forget her. We are continuing to pray for you Dave and your entire family. The LORD OUR GOD BLESS AND KEEP EACH ONE OF YOU.

My heartfelt condolences to you, Dave, and your family in the loss of Debbie. She was truly a valiant woman of faith who loved God's Word and shared it in life and action. My prayers are with you as you live these difficult days and months ahead. It was a blessing to meet you and your sons unexpectedly at Morristown Hospital shortly before Debbie went to be with the Lord. We share each other's burdens, grieve at the departure of loved ones, yet we rejoice at their arrival on that other shore,...

Dave and family. I am so sorry to hear of Debbie´s passing. You and she have always been so good to my family Bill and Dora. Ricci. May she rest in heavenly peace. Dotty Ricci Butler

I met Debbie through Parsippany Christian School where she served as the class mother for my daughter´s high school class. She was an amazing woman of God who loved and served the kids in that class and was a wonderful testimony before their eyes. My prayers are that her family will find comfort and peace through the grace of our loving Lord.

I met Deb last year at Vacation Bible School at Calvary. We were both classroom assistants and we clicked right away. Being former teachers we worked well together and pledged that we would work again this past summer. We were looking forward to it and I was saddened when I didn't see her name on the team. Even though I have only known Deb a short time she was a caring, kind, warm person and I will miss her. My prayers go out to her family. Love, Joy

Dear Dave and Family, So saddened to hear of Debbie's passing! She was and always will be an example of a disciple of Jesus Christ. She was always there to encourage me and point me to God's word for wisdom, strength, and comfort. I am grateful to have known her and I know she is rejoicing now with her Savior Jesus Christ. Praying for you and your family as you grieve her loss. May the Holy Spirit comfort you in the days ahead giving you peace knowing she is with her Lord. Love, Cindy...

to Dave and family, so shocked and saddened to hear of Debbie's passing. We met 43 years ago as young mothers at Gregory School. Debbie always had a bright smile and a kind word. A truly one of a kind person. Sincerest sympathies to all. Joanne Zullo
