My deepest sympathies for your loss.
Condolences,
Jeff Stern
I am so sorry for your loss. Debbie got me through nursing school with her sense of humor and friendship. She helped to keep me on track with our self named OC(obsessive compulsive) book for organization. She gave us all laughs when she screamed when the injection she inserted into the injection simulator hit the bone. We had a great time on our senior trip to Bermuda. She was my true support system in school and I don’t know how I would have done it without her. I am heartbroken that she is no longer with us she was truly a special person.

Accept our condolences, Debbie was always so nice.
So sorry for your loss. Debbie was always very nice .
I knew Debbie since she was a little girl since she lived next door to me on Balboa Dr. She played with my brother and I babysat for her many times. Her mom and my mom were best friends for many years. I got to know a wonderful woman as an adult. I miss my friend. Rest in peace. Carole noska
Much has been eloquently expressed about Debbie’s devotion to family, friends and community, her humility, (in Dennis’ words) her “grace under pressure” in her distinguished nursing career, yet another accomplishments were Girl Scout leader and going undefeated as a basketball coach (graciously filling in for Charlie; 8th grade girls’ team)! A beautiful soul inside and out; we were all blessed to know Debbie. ❤️🙏
Sincerest condolences to you and your family. Your family are in my prayers during this difficult time.
