I was so sorry to hear this news. I worked with Debbie and Ron and was part of the group of co-workers who fixed them up. They were two of the genuinely nicest people I have ever known. My deepest condolences to Laura and Jeff.
I have fond memories of Debbie from Mackville. We have the same first name just spelt different. She was a soft spoken and a very sweet person. My thoughts and prayers for her family. I know she is Heaven with Ronnie and her parents.
