Deborah had such insatiable, intellectual curiosity plus the passionate determination to always try to satisfy it. Many will long remember her, especially because of this. To all in her family - you are wished the patience, courage and optimism needed at this time of her sudden loss.

Madame Walther, Deborah was a classy women who I was fortunate enough to share a classroom with as we were both part time teachers at DSHA. She will be greatly missed. My heart goes out to her family at this very sad time. Please take comfort in knowing that she will be remembered daily in the beautiful faces of the students she taught. I will keep your family in my thoughts and prayers.

I have had the ultimate privilege of being in the new docent class at the Milwaukee Art Museum with Deborah. I remember walking in to the classroom last September, not knowing anyone, and sitting next to Deborah. I instantly felt such enthusiasm, warmth, and natural magnetism. She was an amazing,intelligent,and interesting person and I learned so much from just knowing her - albeit too short of a time. I will never forget her - our class can't ever be the same. My heartfelt condolences to...

I wish everyone who loved Deborah could have known her as we at Ursuline Academy in New Orleans knew her. Debby (as we called her in those days) was my classmate from first grade through high school. She was intelligent, talented, fun, creative, and mischievous. It seemed that she excelled at everything -- art, music, athletics, languages, scholarship, writing, drama.
Debby and I often shared the stage in high school theatrical productions. To me, Debby will always be the brilliant...
