I met Debbie years ago when we both worked at Rocco. She was always smiling and laughing and she was a lot of fun to be around. She loved talking about Mendi. She will be missed. My thoughts and prayers go out to the family. May God surround you with His loving arms and provide comfort and healing to your hearts and souls.

Frank & I send our sincerest symphathies. 
I met Debbie thru the Eagles after I was appointed by the State President to help 
get them thru their problems. I knew once 
Debbie took over everything would be fine. 
Debbie put a lot of time into the Elkton Aerie. 
She alone did all wall paper boarders that still hang in the Aerie. Her first thought was 
always of others. And did everything she could to promote the slogan \"People Helping 
People\" 
Debbie really enjoyed the music of the 60\'s & 70\'s and was a wonderful dancer. I always enjoyed her so very much. 
My heart feels a real void after hearing of her death.

I grew up down the road from Debbie and got to know her while riding the school bus together. My sincere sympathies to her family and friends. May you find the strength to deal with your loss in each other and in the Lord who loves you.
