My thoughts and prayers are with you, Paul, Amanda and Ben. Deb was a wonderful person, cousin, wife and mother. She is missed.

Praying for you today Uncle Paul. Aunt Dee will be greatly missed. She was a sweet, gentle, caring and simple lady. Her kindness, spirit and love always showed. She didn't care about the fancy things she was always happy with less and that is what made her one of a kind. I know she's with mawmaw and pawpaw rejoicing and out of pain. Until we meet again her memory will live on. We love you Uncle Paul and are in our thoughts and prayers for the days to come. Love always Jared, Heather and Hayden.

Dear Paul and Children,
I have been thinking of you so much these past few days and wishing I could be there with you. Herb was so fond of you and Debbie even though we rarely saw you. Herb always remembered the wonderful borscht Debbie made us one time. It was his favorite dish. Peace and Love to you all! Alice Dyck

Dear Paul, Amanda and Ben,
I have very fine memories of visits with your family. Debbie was such a fine hostess and a wonderful cook. Playing table games with her always set us all to laughing. She lives on in my heart.
Love to all your family.

I loved working with Debbie at the library--she was always ready to lend a hand to staff and patrons alike. She was well-loved. You will always live in our hearts and prayers.

Dear Paul, Ben, and Amanda, our prayers are with you all. You're such a wonderful family. All four of you brought us many smiles and moments of friendship and great conversation over the years. Debbie did so much for the kids at our church. (Remember Kids' Club with Debbie and Mary Kay? My kids LOVED that!) And Debbie was extra kind to children. Your whole family is such a joy. Love and prayers for you all. --Ken and Linda Wendling

Paul and family, we will always remember Debbie as the person who welcomed us to SLMF and made sure we all had the information we needed to stay connected and involved -- Debbie made birthday and anniversary lists, noticed people, and really cared about caring. I am so glad for her witness and example. Thank you and your children for sharing your journey and faith with us. with love from Jim, Jane, James, and Dan
