Sandy & Kathy and family - Please accept my deepest sympathies in Debbie's passing. It has been a long, long time since I or my family has seen you and I don't know if you will remember - I am Mary Whaley Vance's niece, my dad was Herman Whaley, Harold's brother. We (my brother & sister)used to visit you all when you lived on North St. I think about you all often, especially since Tommy's passing and remember the times we visited - we went trick-or-treating with Sandy one year - down to McKinley Rd. Wow that was ages ago! Again I am so sorry for your loss. God bless and keep you. Sincerely, Cheryl Whaley Nickles

Kathy & Sandy - I'm sorry but I remembered this after I sent my condolences - the thing I remember most about Debbie and Kathy and it always makes me chuckle was they were the first girls I ever saw who used small orange juice cans to roll their hair! I thought how strange until I was a little older and my hair was down my back and then I realized why they used the cans. What a funny memory! I hope this brings a smile to your faces and again I am so sorry about Debbie's passing. Sincerely, Cheryl Whaley Nickles

My family and I want to send our sincere sympathy to all of you in the family for your loss of Debbie. We were very sad to hear about her passing. Even though it's been over 46 years, I, along with my family, never forgot Debbie, her beautiful smile, her very caring heart of gold, her love for her family and all who were a part of her life, her positive outlook on life, the joy and happiness she always brought to others, and all of the never ending good memories of Debbie will continue to live on forever in the hearts of all who knew her, cared about her, and loved her. She was, and will always be, a very special lady in so many ways. The lord now has another beautiful angel in his kingdom above and may the lord be with all of you in the family both now and forever. Our thoughts an our prayers are with all of you in the family.

Our sincere condolences on this tragic loss. If Debbie's daughter, Jennie, is a reflection of her, and we are sure she is, then Debbie has left an incredible legacy in the amazingly happy and generous and kind soul in Jennie who will continue to do their family honor for many years to come. May her memory be a blessing to everyone else she touched. All Our Love, Rich & Lisa Harris (Denver, CO)

I was so close to Debbie and Kathy growing up. Spent many a day with them swimming. They were beautiful people inside and out. Prayers for all of the family. God bless you all.
