Debbie was an exceptionally beautiful person, inside and out. She cared so much about all of the people in her life, and did everything she could to make them happy, and she always succeeded at making us all happy. She was such a wonderful and loving wife, mother, daughter and friend. She gave so much of herself to the people in her life, and never expected anything in return, only love. Her laughter was contagious, and could make anyone's day better. She loved listening to her music and dancing. She also loved the number 11 and found it in her life many times. She was so full of life and happiness. Debbie, you will be deeply missed, and you will be loved, cherished and in our hearts forever. We are all better people for knowing you and having you in our lives. Mom, Angel and Princess loved their Grandma so much and are looking for you. We can't wait to see you again in Heaven. You were an Angel on earth, and now you have your wings. We know you are flying with the Angels and watching over us, and we know you will guide us through every step of our lives. You will always be our best friend.

"A Better PlaceThere's a place I've never seen beyond this world we know, A place I've only heard of but someday hope to go. It's not on any map, there are not roads to take me there. But it's a place of perfect peace where hearts are free from care. And though I understand some may be saddened when I leave, One day, we all will meet again, that's what I believe. When it's time to travel there, I think I'll wear a smile. I'll say goodbye to those I love, but only for a while. Knowing there are others who have traveled there alone, Who cannot wait to greet me and whisper "welcome home."
