Guestbook

  1. I met Debbie when I became an FLVS Instructor in 2009. I was impressed by her outer as well as her inner beauty. She was also very funny. She shared her best practices with me so I could become a better FLVS instructor. She also encouraged me to volunteer at Queen of Peace and was trained by Steve and Debbie to become an Eucharistic Minister. Through the years and after she retired, I kept seeing her often at church. She loved to sing the Psalms. I am sure that right now, she is singing Psalms in heaven. Rest in Peace, Debbie.

  2. I’m so sorry for the passing of you dear loved one. May your wonderful memories of Deborah be with you and comfort you at this time of grief. May you also look to the "God of all comfort" to help you through this most difficult time. (2 Corinthians 1:3,4)  May your love for Deborah shine through your sorrow, and live on forever. My condolences to the family.
