I enjoyed working with Deb for nearly the past 20 years. She was dedicated to her job, friends and family.
Anyone that knew Deb knows how much she enjoyed counting down to the things she was looking forward to in life. Even though God doesn't give us a date to count down to the day when He takes us home, I am sure she is having the best vacation ever!
Our hearts and prayers go out to you Rick, Chris, Brad, Janelle and the rest of Deb's family. Please let us know if there is anything we can do.
Our deepest sympathy,
Julie and Greg Eley

Rick and family, I’m stunned and shocked by Deb’s passing. She was a loving wife, mom and grandma that will certainly be missed. I will miss her contagious smile and humor. She was a great coworker, friend and confidant. May the Lord Jesus Christ embrace her and take her into the Heavens until we meet again.

My condolences go out to Deb's family--especially to Rick, who I went to grade school with at Bethlehem oh so many years ago.

I am so sorry for your loss. Deb was the greatest person and she loved everyone she came across. I had the privilege of working with Deb at Kmart. She was one in a million.
She will be missed by so many. May you find strength in the Lord.

I'm so sorry for everyone's loss of this dear, sweet lady. She always had a smile to share and loved to share stories of Barry Manilow concerts. But even Barry couldn't hold a candle to Deb's family - her husband, kids and grandkids put a twinkle in Deb's eyes like nothing else. I will miss our talks, our inside jokes, her smile. I'm so lucky to have known Deb. I pray for peace, comfort, and strength for her friends and family, and please accept my deepest condolences for your family's loss.
