I had lost touch with Debbie over the years but am very saddened to learn of her passing. Her love and joy were spread lovingly to all she touched. Countless animals and people have benefited from her generous and loving spirit. She assisted us in getting a wonderful counselor for my special needs daughter who she is still seeing to this day. My condolences to her family and friends. The world is a little darker and the heavens a little brighter with her passing.

I was shocked and saddened to hear of Debbie’s passing. She was my college room-mate and maid of honor in my wedding. She will be missed by all who knew her. Susan

We met at GSH and worked in real estate. She is missed a lot

Debbie and I met and subsequently became friends while working at GSH. I joined the firm fresh out of real estate school – a bundle of naïve energy who wanted to set the industry on fire. Although initially reluctant to take on such a greenhorn, Debbie gradually showed me the ropes of how to be a true real estate pro.

Over the years, we supported each other through divorces, new marriages, moving, job changes, and the adoption of many four-legged children. Looking at her picture now brings back many fond memories and I am saddened at her passing. May her family and friends find comfort and peace during this sad time by remembering Debbie’s laughter, quick wit, helping heart and generous spirit.
