Debby was such a great friend throughout our highschool years and after. Colleen, Diane, Debby and I worked at Presque Isle concession stands for several summers in the late 60's. And our group would hang out together in the evenings and weekends. Debby was always so much fun. I will always treasure all the great times we spent together. My prayers go out to her family.

I am so sorry to hear of your loss. I knew Deb from Tri-State; she was in many of my classes. She had become a very good friend of mine; we spent all of our time during our breaks talking about everything imaginable! She was one of the nicest people I knew, and so bubbly and friendly. I admired her for her courage and her spunk. I am really going to miss her. My prayers are with her family and loved ones at this time...may she be at peace.

I am so sorry to hear of your loss. Deb was a class mate of mine at Tri State. She was very smart and so bubbly, always smiling. Deb is one of the strongest people I have ever met and I will never forget her and how courageous she was. I will miss seeing her in class and asking me "how typing is going"........ My thoughts and prayers are with you.
