It has taken awhile to write this. I have been a part of this very large family for over 21 years and never met a more wonderful, caring, loving person. Deb you are with your parents, your Aunts and Uncles, and some cousins, including our son Corey. I never got the chance to say thank you for being a great support system to the entire family. I pray you are with all of your favorite birds. See you as this is not a good bye but a see you later.
Love

Pam,Diane and familys
Growing up on Pam was a wonderful experience and you and Deb were a great part of it. By reading the condolences I see Deb made a great impression on many and will be missed greatly. I had several occasions to discuss our mutal love of photograpy with Deb in our adult years. Childhood went by to fast. When Dad and my sister Michelle died I was comforted by this sttement. I hope it helps you girls also.
When we lose someone we love, it seems that time stands still.
What moves through us is a silence, a quiet sadness, a longing for one more day, one more word, one more touch, we may not understand why you left this earth so soon, or why you left before we were ready to say good-bye, but little by little, we begin to remember not just that you died, but that you lived. And that your life gave us memories too beautiful to forget. |

Wow, I don't even know what to say. Because someone sent us a link to an eagle cam in Shepherdstown, WV, I have met some of the best friends I have ever had in my life. Deb was one of these friends. We got to meet "in real life" last year at the NCTC Open House in Shepherdstown, sat together during the live animal shows and dinner. She was truly an advocate for God's creatures here on earth and she will be sorely missed by the Eaglet Momsters that came to love her as a sister, as we love each other!!
Deb, soar high, soar free! We miss you so much already! |

I had the pleasure of working with Deb at Target for many years. She was always a calming leader who we could all count on to make good decisions even when everything was falling apart around her! Deb's positive presence was a blessing to anyone who came into contact with her. I had so many good times and laughs with Deb over the years that I will always cherish. Heaven has a beautiful angel now who is "soaring with the eagles" and I will be praying for her family through this difficult time. God bless. |

Wow.....I have known Deb forever, and I know I shall miss her forever. Yikes, can't recall the actual year Deb arrived in Winner as a new teacher to welcome and absorb into our circle of friends, exactly, so that means it really "has been forever". Not much fun to lose a great friend who was always there for family and friends. All who knew Deb know what I am trying to say here. I enjoyed many summers of camptime/boating/laughing on The Missouri with her, Marcia, and all friends who did get there to share leisure time, visit, and enjoy just being together.\r\n\r\nHugs to all Deb\'s family & network of Friends.

I live across the street at 918 and I did not know Deb but I really admired her for being able to back that boat up so easy and I can\'t do it even though I tried many times. I have a hard time backing up my camper. I want to send you my condolences on your loss and by the other messages I have read she will be greatly missed. I wish I would of taken the time to meet her and visit with her. When she got a paper on her boat I knew I would get one on my camper. We just could not park our vehicles on the street. Again I am sorry for your loss. |

Debra was a dear friend and a fellow eaglemomster. I cherished our vicarious friendship and mutal love of all "God's creatures, great and small." My heart will hold a void for her the rest of my life. I know that she is in Heaven in the arms of the Great Comforter. I am sure as she entered the Pearly Gates, Saint Peter handed her one of the blessed little creatures she was unable to rescue during her life to tend to while in Heaven. Heaven has gained a fierce advocate to watch over God's creatures down here on earth. Debra, I miss you. Love Donna (Mauley) from Kentucky |
