my sincerest and heartfelt condolences go out to the family and friends of Debbie. Words cannot describe how very sorry I am about her untimely passing. as I sit here, teary-eyed, with a broken up voice, I can only share this one moment. it seems like just yesterday, we were riding the school bus together(Cindy Giordano was the bus driver) Cindy and Debbie Would be joking back and forth with each other. I was a few grades younger, so I just sat there quietly without comment. as the years went on, I had many occasions to visit her house and although I was not visiting her, she would always treat me with respect even though I was younger, I will never forget that. Debbie I will miss you, and I know you're in heaven. Debbie was a very special person, as I'm sure her family knows, may her kindness live on forever .

What a tragedy. Deb, I will cherish your memory always. Especially your vicious geese chasing me around your yard as a child and those crazy Chihuahuas! My deepest sympathy and prayers to Aunt Lillian, Uncle Ray, Uncle Wayne and Aunt Kat and your sons. My heart is so broken for you all. May you rest in peace with Bobby until we meet again, cousin.
