The first time I met Debra, I was applying for the hotel and waiting for my interview and she was the first person to come greet me and sit with me to chat. She was so kind to me and was rooting for me to get the job. When I did, she became one of my very close coworkers! I will always remember Debra being my biggest cheerleader. She was so excited that I was engaged and wanted her to share the special day with me! Her being there to celebrate with us made our day. Not only did she become my friend but also my husbands friend or her "boyfriend" as she called him. I will miss her good morning texts with a funny picture attached and themed perfectly for the day. Debra was a fantastic friend. She will always be cherished and missed in our lives.
