  9. Donna and Denise and I all had the pleasure of working with Deb at PRC. She was good to the clients, loyal to her friends and a teacher to us all. I will always remember her patience when working with challenging individuals…..I never once heard her raise her voice or say an unkind word to the people we cared for. I worked doubles with her, then we would turn around and come back the next day at 7 after leaving at 11 the night before, and it always went smoothly with Debbie. She was a loving mother to John and Jake and I know she was a proud grandma. Rest in peace, dear friend and I look forward to seeing you again….your friend and mine….

  10. I wish I could have made the services. . I will miss Debbie very much . . She was a good friend to me; and like our buddy Danny, I can’t express the emptiness I now have with the two of them departing this life! RIP . . Now you can go fishing Deb! I love you!
