Many years have passed since I lived or visited 'the hill" as we used to say. Debbie was one of my favorite people and closest friends in high school. I was blessed for knowing her. Eddie, my thoughts and prayers are with you and yours. There are no words to express the sorrow or ease the grief you feel today. I am so sorry for your loss. Debbie was one in a million.

My deepest condolences to the family. I knew Debbie through David's Good Food. She catered many meals for us at Johnson and Johnson and we always looked forward to seeing her. She was truly one of the kindest people I have ever met. She always had a smile for everyone. She will be greatly missed. God Bless your family.
