So sorry to learn of the loss of Debbie. I would have came to the funeral but I didn't find out she had passed until after the funeral. I will keep your family in my prayers.

Ricky, Aunt Reba, Uncle Bob, Tabitha, Brad and all of the family.
I am so saddened by the passing of Debbie. She and I were always real close even though we lived hundreds of miles apart.
We would called each other and talk for hours. I will miss not being able to hear her voice.
I will always cherish the memories of Debbie living with Daddy and me after I had my accident. She was there for me and I wish I could have been out there for her.
We had so many great times back when we were young. As I am writing this I have thought of some of the good times we had. I think about Debbie as my translator. She could read my lips or just know what I said when no one else could.
I will miss the visits that Debbie and I had when she came to Jesup. There were never a time that we didn't start
talking about something from years ago or our grandchildren.
She loved those grandchildren. We would kinda compare our grandkids. Baseball or softball was always a topic that came up.
I will miss Debbie in so many ways and I know all of you will also.
Think about the positive things in Debbie's life. I will never forget that laugh that Debbie had. It was like no other.
I wish I could be there with all of you but I have no way of getting there.
I will keep all of you in my prayers and I love you all,
Vicky or Vic as Debbie always called me.
