Debbie - I have laughed and cried this weekend thinking about all of the good times we had together at the beach, with our girls, having yard sales and on the phone. I cannot believe that you are gone so soon but I know you are at peace and free from your long illness. 
 
Mendi, Lisa, Bubbie and Gail - you are in my thoughts as you go through this difficult time.  
 
Love - Joy

Our sincere and deepest sympathy to Mindi and all of Debbie\'s family. She was a special lady and will always have a special place in our hearts. She was so kind and thoughtful to everyone who knew her. She loved being a grandmother. She loved Karaoke and we all loved to hear her sing. She brightened the room when she walked in with that beautiful smile. 
May God give you the strength you need in the difficult days ahead. May you find peace and comfort in your precios memories. The sadness you are feeling is felt by love ones around you. May it help in some small way to know you are not alone - God is with you and so are we.

Debbie and I were classmates and I loved her dearly. Although I didn't get to see her in her last few days, I'm so glad to have had the time with her to plan our class reunion. Debbie was a fun loving person and we will miss her dearly. My heart goes out to her family. May God give you the strength to get through this hurtful time. 
Love you Debbie! Gone but never forgotten.
