Dearest Dave and family, This is the tough part of living ; the saying goodbye. I remembered the first day I met Debbie, it was Labor Day weekend. Kirk and I were invited down to Tybee to enjoy some time with Dave and Debbie, they had rented a condo and we had grilled steaks and drinks.Debbie made me feel comfortable and her friendly nature put me at ease. It would not be our last meeting. She was a kind and loving person. Debbie knew how to love and enjoy life.Debbies love and energy was contagious and I am so happy I got to share a little time with her. My only regret is not getting together with her more often.She was the real deal!

My husband and I would like to express our deepest condolences for your loss, it's never easy going through the passing of a loved one. You might take comfort in God's promise at Revelation 21:4, whI changed says "He will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away." This scripture brought us peace when we experienced loss, we hope it does the same for you. May you find strength during this time
