Tribute from Erica Waterman: [Happy Birthday to the world's best mother & Nana!!! I hope you're partying hard in heaven today, pain free! With a yummy Macri's cake, that was your favorite. I so wish we could be celebrating today with you...But we will still celebrate this day in your memory. We love you mom more than the sky. Happy birthday in heaven]

Debbie I know your in a better place pain free looking down on us with a big smile I was glad our family got to meet you had loads of fun and laughs at the cook out we will see ya when we meet up again

She was an inspiration, an example of love, faith, endurance and all that is good! Her love for her husband and family was so pure. A great person and friend. We had a lunch planned last year when I flew in to Kentucky. She was called off to the clinic and couldn't come. I would have loved to have seen her again. She impacted our lives in a way will never forget.

Debbie and I go way back to the 70's. Teaching her to drive in her Dad's little tbird, her first taste of real butter, & homemade cookies. We have laughed and cried together thru the years. She will now be with Mom in heaven. Debbie Doodle you will be forever missed.

Tribute from Rosalie Schotanus: [I'm so sorry to hear about Deborah's passing. Sending my prayers and love to Dan and his children. May they find comfort and peace in knowing our Creator is in charge. Love and Blessings to you.
My heart and prayers go out to Dan and his children for their sorrow in the death of his wife.]

Throughout all of the days we shared, I will always remember your smile and your graciousness. You were a true friend and fought to the end. I never made it down to see you......that I regret. I love you Debbie my friend.
Your Angel Nurse

Although Debbie and I didn't know each other well in high school, we had become friends over the last year or so through facebook social media. Debbie was always gracious and so nice to communicate with. I know her family meant the world to her. I look forward to meeting Debbie in heaven, where I'll see her smile in person. :-)

I went to grade school and high school with Debbie. I use to keep in touch with her through her mom when Value City was open. I was glad to reconnect with her after all this time on Facebook. My prayers go out to the family and hope that God will soothe your grief. I know by Debbie's post that her faith was very strong and I know that she is smiling down on her family.
