To Deb’s loved ones,
Our deepest condolences to you, may you find strength and peace during your time of sorrow. Deb loved you, she spoke about you frequently and her smile was huge when her family was coming to visit her in Florida.
She and her beautiful smile will be missed by everyone who knew her. We shared lots of laughs on the tennis courts and golf course although she was never to happy in the sand trap!

Someone I aspired to as a young girl, and still do. The memories I share with Deb always have and always will make me giggle to myself. She was always the ultimate cool mom, which I know she loved haha. Her memory and legacy lives on in her incredibly beautiful, kind daughters. The loss of Deb is so immense, which is such a tribute to the impact she has left on everyone she has met, even if for a short while. Joe and I send our love and condolences to Deb’s incredible family at an unimaginably difficult time.

She will be missed! Tracey and Bob Murray

Deb was a childhood friend since grade six. My sister Karen and myself spent many week ends travelling up North in Debs little blue Honda . I took discos dancing lessons with Debbie and her laugh could be heard all over the studio.She was so much fun to be with wether it was exploring new ideas or swimming in her parents pool. She will be truly missed . My condolences to her beautiful daughters Taylor and a Dani who were absolutely loved and adored by your mother.

Words can’t adequately capture the sadness within our hearts when we heard of Deb’s passing. We have such wonderful memories of fun and laughter when our families would get together! Tennis, golf, pool parties, football parties, Florida trips, “girls only” trips to Florida. No shortage of fun-filled stories of Deb fill our memories! Memories we will treasure for always!
Tay and Dani, you were her everything! It’s true your Mom was always smiling but her smile would became radiant and her eyes would twinkle when she spoke of you both! She was always so proud of you!
