Debbie was in our class of 1967 at Highland Park High School, Topeka, Kansas. She was truly beautiful with an awesome smile. She was unable to attend our 50 Class Reunion Anniversary and planned to come to the next one at 55 years.
May our Lord hold her in the palm of His hand. She was a blessing to friends, family, sorority and her church.

I'm truly heart broken to hear about the passing of Debbie Wells Horwitz. She and I were an item during our college years at Emporia State University. I've thought about her quite often throughout the years. My sincere condolence, thoughts and prayers go out to the family.
God Bless,

You will truly be missed. You were a great role model and supporter of all of you students. You taught us to be individuals and go hard for everything we wanted. You were my high school volleyball coach. I have great memories of the times of encouragement over the years. Sending prayers of strength and comfort to your family.

More than a teacher and coach, you were my friend. You made a profound impact on my life, I wanted to be just like you. I take comfort in knowing that to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord. Fly high my friend, I'll see you when I get there. My condolences to your family.

I first met Debbie in the late 70s through our teaching career and my sister knew her from the mutual daycare they took their children. Debbie was so beautiful inside and out and many of us looked up to her. Debbie was most proud of her family and the many students she loved teaching. May her memory be forever eternal.
