She was vibrant, engaging, and made each person she met feel like they had known her forever. She was kind, beautiful, and so giving of her time and efforts.
She was an excellent cook and baker and strongly believed in food as a form of love.
She was extremely creative – be it making beautiful crafts or at work.
While she did not have children of her own, she treated her nieces and nephews as if they were hers.
She was THE favorite sister, aunt, cousin, other mother, and backup grandma.
She touched many lives – be they family, friends, coworkers, or the cab driver from the airport while on vacation.
She will be greatly missed.
She will live on in our vast collection memories of all things “Debbie” and in the hearts of those who loved her.
