Rich I am so sorry to hear of Debra's passing over life's bridge. She always made me feel better about ushering when she found out I was not comfortable with it. She dressed impeccably and I adored her daring to wear hats in this day and age. Thinking about you.

Susan Hack, St John's parishioner and fellow usher with you :)
