Debbie was amazing, I knew her beyond a parent, she knew people and knew her kids better than I know my own ! She took care of anyone who needed care and acceptance. I could talk hours about virtues you and I only wished. She was a beautiful person. - Posted by: Kim Gowryluk (Friends, Matt’s teacher ) on: Mar 24, 2022

Well, I've missed this family since I moved away, she was the most wonderful person ever, I wish I could hug the kids, Matt used to call me his second mom, miss them both every day. I've known Debbie since I was 13 years old we grew up around each other then drifted away then grew back together and became inseparable, then I moved to Victoria, and the distance grew too wide for our friendship to survive, not that I didn't love the family anymore, life just got in the way, I feel extremely guilty for not having been there when you guys needed me the most, I was drowning in my own stuff, not an excuse. Our Debbie was definitely one of a kind. I feel truly blessed to have had her in my life, she once told me to grow a pair, well thanks to Debbie I have, I am a strong woman because of the friendship we had. I finally grew a pair Debs, I love you and miss you tremendously, sorry I screwed up in the end, I just didn't have it to give back, but I promise to you I will pay it forward, everyday! I love you sister/friend/best buds .....you are missed - Posted by: helen campbell (lost soul) on: Jun 24, 2017

I worked with Debbie in the early 1990s. She was so much fun to work with. She dedicated her life to those less fortunate. I am saddened to see that she passed away at such a young life. My deep sympathy to the family. - Posted by: Gerry P (former co-worker) on: Feb 01, 2017

I knew Debbie a long time ago. Our history goes back to when we were teenagers. She was an enjoyable person always with a smile on her face, even when the "chips were down". She was always there for support and a hug. I am saddened for her family of her passing. My condolences as she would be a major loss in her families' life. Rest In Peace Debbie. - Posted by: Chris Saranchuk (friend) on: Jan 08, 2017

Debbie was a Guardian Angel for those who were lost and could not find their way as I was when I met her. She took me under her wing and watched out for me and was like a protective mom. She was always honest and kind to me, truly a life saver. Always a kind smile, a kind word, to make me feel special and important. Always words of encouragement that gave me strength to change for the better. Rest in Peace my friend you will be forever missed. Another Angel called home. Your Friend, Kimberly Bruce - Posted by: Kim Bruce (friend) on: Jan 07, 2017

Debbie helped me at a time in my life when everything was just crazy and accepted me for me and just was there when no one else was. WE had partied like crazy and hung out sometimes just to hang out. Good memories I have of her. Even though we drifted apart and went our own separate ways I will always remember the crazy ass times we had together. She was an amazing supermom to everyone around her and no matter your station she would always help you . She helped me to rethink how I was living my life and gave me better redirection and I am the woman today you see because of her. Debbie you will be missed by a great many people. xoxoxoxoxoxoxox - Posted by: katherine gladue and family (crazy kathi) on: Jan 06, 2017

You were there for me when I was at my worst and no one wanted me but you saw a light in me and knew I wasn't meant to be that person.You took me and cared for me when no one else would and set me free to fly on my own when I was 18 even though I was scared you reassured me I would be fine.Many years later I WAS fine and it was because of you that you set me off on the good path of life and i will never forget it.I will miss you mom,You were a good friend,until we meet again Kristin D. - Posted by: Kristin Dubois (foster daughter) on: Jan 06, 2017
