“I am so sorry to hear about Debbie. Even though we didn’t get to see each other often, I always thought she was cool as hell. My heart goes out to my aunt Virgina and cousin Allan and Debbie’s husband.” We literally just spoke a few weeks ago due to my sister’s sudden passing. We all getting older people get with your family and extended family and visit. Life’s short!!!
My deepest condolences to the family, I worked with Deborah and met her at our work Christmas party. She was a very kind and sweet lady. She will be missed.
I pray over loved ones during this time.
Deborah, I will always remember you for your forever smile and lifting personality. Working with you will be a memory of patience in a coworker ever. You are best example of a courageous, strong, friend. Rest in peace in the presence of our Lord and Savior.
John 14:2. In My Father’s house are many mansions; if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.🙏🏻
Dear Ron, I am so very sorry to learn of Debbie’s passing. My heart just aches for you and your family. I pray that you find peace through sweet memories from over the years you shared together and that she and TW have made a heavenly connection and shared stories of UTMB’s Physical Plant folks. You and Nick remain in my heart as the amazing duo who was always there to attend to anything that needed attention. In God’s Love, Pat Bevil.
