Deb was one of my first dance instructors. She always got after me for frame on the dance floor. Deb and Glenn were quite the team. The dance community lost a great person. My condolences to Glenn and her family. - Posted by: John Evan (Ex student) on: Oct 16, 2026

I went to high school with Debbie. I loved hearing her stories of when she was working at the Ramada Inn. Such a lovely person with a fantastic sense of humor. Speaking of sense of humor, Debbie and I were driving buddies for Drivers Ed and she made me laugh a few times then… Rest in peace Debbie… - Posted by: Lynn Menzies (High school friend) on: Oct 12, 2026

We met Debbie in Kansas City, MO at a dance event. We bonded over dance, playing cards and Sheridan's ice cream. She will be missed by us. - Posted by: Bill & Leths Blackforf (Friend) on: Oct 11, 2026

I am in disbelief reading about the passing of Deb. I would bring my class to the library and we would have real conversations. There was no candy coating of any situations she always spoke of her fondness of teaching dancing and attending Keith Urban concerts wherever they led her and Don. I often told her after my retirement through word how much I missed our real discussions about the education system. I hope she danced her way to Heaven to her favourite Keith Urban song. We have lost a treasure. My very sincere condolences to Don and her boys. - Posted by: Lana Storey (former colleague at Ecole Neil Campbell School) on: Oct 10, 2026

I am so very sorry to hear of Deb’s passing. We worked together for years at Neil Campbell. She was a definite asset and she gave all to the library at the school. Rest in peace Deb. - Posted by: Cathy friesen (Friend) on: Oct 10, 2026
