Deb was more than just an employee to me... She was a great friend! From day one...She made my transition to being a store manager easy! I loved seeing her, not only at work, but out and about in everyday life. She always took the time to ask about my kids and how they were doing, and then would share about her own son and his wife. She was a very proud mother and wife. I'm sorry I can only share the one picture of her (phone policies at work are a bummer), but look at it... That smile was infectious. I'll miss you Deb! Thanks for being a great friend and all around wonderful person.
