May heaven be filled with car rides, fireworks and happy time. We will miss your smile here on earth. Thank you for the lessons of love, laughter and living you have taught all who know you.

I remember Debbie when I first met her fifteen years ago, when she was unable to walk unassisted. Debbie was a very determined woman and through her determination she was able to overcome her disability and within months of coming to stay at our home she was able to shed her crutches and walked unassisted for the remainder of her stay(fifteen years or so).

My most fond memory of Debbie and I was aways on Christmas Eve, I always looked forward to Christmas Eve at my parents just so I could give Debbie the Santa update. My update was always something to do with Santa's sleigh, such as Rudolf may have blown a bulb and Christmas might have to wait a couple days before he could get his nose working again, or the reindeer were sick. Debbie always said "no they didn't" and then would smile her big smile and wait for me to give her the good news, which I always gave her after letting her think about it for a couple of minutes. After Santa's good news and the reassurance that Christmas was still on she would always respond with "You got me buddy!" Lately, I've missed that most about Christmas... Debbie our family misses you and I am sure that you are in a much happier place.

Love,
Dan Flanders and Family

Debbie we only had the chance to know you for a year. In that short time tho you taught us how to live, love and laugh. Every time I saw you there was ALWAYS A HUGE SMILE on your face. First thing you'd say was "Hey Buddy!" Now you are pain free and running around like a mad woman I am sure! :) Deb we will all miss you and love you forever!
P.S. Tell my Dad I miss him and hey im sure he has a motorhome you can drive!

Your Buddy!
