Debbie and I had many conversations about life, family, and what is truly important. I loved hearing stories about Amanda and Lila (her daughter and granddaughter especially)! I recently became a grandpa in December, 2019 so Debbie and my most recent conversations, really emphasized what being a grandparent is all about. Once again, Debbie gave me some insights and wisdom about the love a grandparent has for their grandchild.
I will sorely miss Debbie, are regular calls, and especially her funny and whimsical view on life and work! She always has been an angel in my heart!
