My sincere condolences to you and your family. Debbie was a great friend the last few years I lived in East Moline. We rode together to the MVQC Guild afternoon meetings. My family was members of Christ United Methodist Church since 1960. My family and my husbands family used Schroeder´s Mortuary since 1958. We had a lot in common and it was a pleasure to have her has my friend before I moved to California in 2012. My sincere condolences and prayers to everyone. Phyllis Myers
