John and family, I am so sorry for your loss. Debbie and I were friends from back in grade school thru high school, we worked on the 1971 Yearbook together and walked home form WiMiHi every night after our Yearbook meetings. I always enjoyed her company and sense of humor. Holding you in my thought, sending love and sympathy.
