I have been away most of the summer and I am so sorry to hear of your Mother's passing.  I worked your Mom at Bryden and the Middle School and I enjoyed her sense of dedication to her students and joy of living.  She will be missed!

Vickie and Family,

I was saddened to hear that Debbie has passed on.  It appears she had a very positive impact on peoples lives.  I only remeber her as your little sister who was always smiling and bubbly, much like her older sister and parents.  It has been far too many years since those days as kids but we all have great memories.  Love and prayers to you and the entire family.

Dear Family,
My deepest sympathy to you on the loss of your mother.  She was a truly special person -- warm, generous, funny, kind, and so dedicated to the children she taught.  I will always be grateful for everything she did for my children as a teacher and summer tutor. May her memory be a blessing.

Dear Rachel and Gideon, Jacob and Madalyn,  Anneli and I are happy for you that we were privileged to meet with your dear Mother, Mother-in-law and Grandmother a year ago.  She was a lovely lady and we know she will be sorely missed.

Dear Family,
Debbie's guidance and support of children made her special to all whom she touched.  She made a difference in our children's lives and in the lives of the parents of children. She made our children feel special and gave them confidence to succeed in life. We hold her very near and dear to our hearts and will miss her and the impact she made in this world.  Rest in peace Debbie.

Vicki.. so very sorry for your loss.. my condolences to you and the family
