Deborah J. Youngs

When I started working at chesterfield elementary, I said I wasn´t going to call a teacher by her first name until my kids were through that grade. That didn´t happen with Deb. She was always Deb. I loved having lunch in the faculty room with her. No matter what kind of day you were having, she always made you feel better with her stories and sense of humor. Thanks Deb for the laughs and the wonderful memories. . We will miss you.

Debbie taught three of my children and I was on the Chesterfield PTA board and worked with her on a number of projects. She was such a warm, caring and wonderful person. She always had a big smile for all. I could not have asked for a better person to teach my children, especially at such a young age. She will be greatly missed.....

I was fortunate enough to have Ms. Youngs as my kindergarten teacher at Chesterfield Elementary. Some of my earliest childhood memories include her smile and warm demeanor. My thoughts are with her family, she will be very missed by many.

`Miss Youngs´ was the teacher who could reach every child and filled her classroom with joy, creativity, and warmth! I´m so sorry for your loss, Her life and presence was such a gift to all of us lucky enough to know her, and we are all better for her generous spirit. Our family will miss Debbie but never forget her.

Dear Debbie,
I’m not sure where to start I have known you for more than 25-years, and there are so many things I would love to share, but I guess the one thing I can’t seem to say enough is, “you will be missed!”
I will miss your great smile. I will miss your upbeat & positive personality. I will miss your kindness. I will miss your laugh. I will miss your sense of humor. I will miss your stories. I will miss watching you pick things out of your food. I will miss everything...

Wonderful teacher and even better person. Rest easy..

Our hearts are heavy with the loss of Ms. Youngs. A true educator who lead with compassion, patience and her remarkable knowledge to run a classroom of small children unlike any other was always pleasurable. Ms. Youngs example of leadership helped me during my years at Chesterfield Elementary, Mercer County Special Services and Hamilton Township school districts. It is because of her wisdom and caring professionalism, as well as the lessons I learned from her that helped me bring unity...

I'm so terribly sorry to hear this news- Miss Youngs was the absolute best kindergarten teacher and my favorite! She was a kind, patient and wonderful teacher who made me love to learn. My thoughts go out to her family, she was one-of-a-kind and will be dearly missed.

We are sorry for your loss. May Debbie Rest In Peace.
