Jean and family As the sunshine’s above us Debbie will be shining down on us with a smile and joke. She would not want us to sit around and cry but sit around and laugh. Debbie was one of a kind -she always joked and around and made you laugh. She will be missed dearly by all she has touched. My heart and prayers goes out to you.

Debbie had a lot of fun with our son Brendan at Power Wheelchair Soccer. Brendan would bump Debbie's chair on ocassion and ask us what we are feeding him. The next week she would ask if we fed him anything for breakfast. She was a great person and Iwish the best to Jean.
