Dearest Deb~
How my heart breaks knowing you are gone. We have been friends since I don’t know when. Probably the time we started church together back in the 70’s. You will always hold a special place in my heart. I am so sorry you are gone. Please give Scott a hug for me. I know you both are rejoicing in Heaven, a MUCH better place to be than on this old earth. I love you my friend. See you later.
