To the Family

I have known Deb for about 15 years now through CDC. Some folks use to call us double trouble because my name is also Deborah. I miss Deb's laughter, smile, wittiness, smarts and especially going out to lunch. Deb loved herself some Chinese chicken with asparagus! She enjoyed talking about her children good or bad; she was so proud of them and loved them unconditionally. When Deb went to the Roybal campus we didn't go to lunch as much but kept in touch via email and telephone calls.

Family, I truly miss Debora who remains in my heart forever missed!

Fond Memories

April 26, 2021

Debora was the youngest of seven (7) children. She was affectionately known as the “oops baby” because after 7 years of no pregnancy “oops”. She was unexpected, but welcomed. She was showered with much love from the very beginning. Whether she knew it or not that love followed her through life.
The two things that impressed me the most about Debora was her intelligence and her piano playing. She was quite gifted on the keyboard. She played the organ on Sundays at church service in D.C. while still in her teens. But before that she was exposed to the world of art in the form of museums, plays, concerts and different exhibits around the city. It is my honest opinion that those experiences molded her intellectually. I always considered her the second smartest among us siblings. I won’t name the smartest, but it’s not me.
My last communication with Debora was on Christmas Day 2020 via text. It simply read “Merry Christmas. Love you all.” I’m thankful I was able to tell her that she was loved.
