I am still in shock. Debbie is my cousin and we grew up together as children along with her sister Michele. All 3 of us were close and similar in age. We were the 3 youngest of our generation. We had grown even closer over the last 10 years or more in our adult life. My wife and I saw her as much as possible and a shout out to the Psaltis family for all the invites to their house. We loved and adored her as we love. and adore Melissa. I can´t get my head around it. We will miss her terribly. She´s with her siblings that have passed and her mom and dad. Until we meet again my dear cousin, Love, Mar and Debbie.
