Debbie was the bravest woman I've ever known. Left with a young family to provide for, she never wavered. She worked hard and long hours and provided a stable home life for her children. Her thoughts were always about her children and beloved grandchildren. She had a great sense of humor. I loved to hear her laugh! She has been through hell..... so the only thing left is Heaven!! To you, my brave friend....Love to the family, Mary Minick Stickley
