When I first moved to Greensboro, seven years ago, Deb was one of the first people to offer her friendship. She was such a beautiful person - both inside and out. Devoted mother and wife, excellent hostess & caring friend - she demonstrated a great work/life balance. She often inspired me with her creative and energetic spirit. Deb, thanks for being a real friend when I needed it the most.

There are so many things I will always love and remember about Deb...her face always seemed to have a smile, even through these past 18 months, when she was more of a comfort to me than I could have hoped to be to her. She's a true inspiration to me and will always be.
I imagine Deb to be up in Heaven scoping out the good places to shop, and making sure everything is decorated just so, for all of us to enjoy when we get there. I will miss Deb always.

My thoughts go out to you, James and Andrew, as you complete the journey that started 18 months ago. Deb will always be remembered by me as a wonderful, caring person who was just full of life. Her smile was beautiful and she cared about everyone she met. She will be missed, but I know she will be in better place. I enjoyed knowing her and working with her for many, many years.

Dear Jamie and Andrew,
My thoughts and prayers are with you both and I only wish that I could be there for Deb's service. I loved her but my wife loved her especially dearly and I hope that each of you will continue supporting one another as your hearts begin the long, slow healing process.
May God bless and keep her safely forever and ever unto eternity.

My thoughts and prayers are with You as you mourn your loss and celebrate Deb’s remarkable life.
Deb was a kind and honorable woman. I'm glad I had the opportunity to get to know her, not only has a co-worker but as a true friend.
I will miss her dearly.

So hard to express years of friendship memories into a few words. I will greatly miss the conversations about our kids, relationships and life events. So many times you lifted me up when I was feeling down. I am blessed to have known Debra. Thank you.

Deb--I can't express how much you meant to me and how much I loved you. We had a relationship that went beyond friendship and I will miss you every day.
As I told you before--get the gardens going and start hanging the bling and save me a spot!! You are forever in my heart.
