I’m so sorry to learn of Debbie’s passing. I know she struggled with her health for several years but this still comes as a surprise. I last spoke with her around the time she moved to Middleton. I regret not getting together with her since our cousin Mary Sweeney’s funeral. I wish I could be present for her memorial service but will be in Canada with my family on that date. Please know I will keep her in my prayers. Love to you all, Bonnie Binger Thomas
