I don't know what I can say about Debbie that hasn't already been said by those who knew her longer and better than I did. But I think everybody needs someone like Debbie in their lives, who can brighten their day just by being around or having a 2 minute conversation. I guess that's what makes it so much harder to lose her.
I loved to make her laugh, which was pretty easy to do. Even though I didn't see her much outside of the office, I felt like we had special bond, like we just understood each other as if I'd known her for years and years. That is one of the greatest things about her, I bet she made a lot of people feel that way, and that's pretty unique.
My heart aches for Jack and the rest of the family, but glad they had Debbie in their lives at all, she was a blessing.
Rest in Peace Debbie
