What a wonderful video tribute. Getting to know a small page in Deb‚Äôs chapter was a delight. We shared similar memories at times and had good laughs over them. Deb told many stories of her loving family, friends and college days.  I Love that hat photo
RIP Deb 🙏🏼

I worked with Deb as a coadvisor for a club that focused on high school culture. Deb loved the kids and spoke for the unspoken. Her heart was large and she shared it with everyone. Deb, you blessed my life. Hug John for me.
