Dear Ken, Heather, Jeff, Holly and children,
Perhaps they are not stars in the sky,
But rather openings
Where our loved ones shine down
To let us know they are happy.
I will miss Debbi, but I know that I'll see her
the next time the stars are out.

Dear Kenny, Jeff, and Heather,
I am so sorry to read of Debbi's passing. I think of you all often, the laughs,the hayrides and the great times we had at your summer parties, the Red Rose, and anywhere else we went as a group. And how we did laugh! I always felt like part of your family. These are memories I will cherish forever.
The world was a better place because Debbi was in it. She truly loved all of you. You are all in my thoughts.
Love

To all the Youngs:
My thoughts and prayers are with all of you. Debbi was my "boss" at Parks when I came to the County in 1984, and has been my friend ever since. We met for breakfast frequently, and had such a good time together. You all were the center of her life, and she was so proud of you - her husband, children, grandsons.
She was a great lady, and I will miss her.
