Condolences & Memories (8 entries)

• Debbi was always thoughtful of others, vibrant, gracious and truly unforgettable! Your day always became brighter once a "Debbi-hug" or "Debbi-smile" came your way! There is no other! Grace & Gurcan (Friends) - Posted by: Grace Kocdag (Friend) on: Jun 21, 2023

• Debbie offered so much of herself to everyone and her dedication to patient care is unmatched! I worked alongside with her for thirty years at Campus Dental and she helped establish Reflection Dental. We both moved on from there but the patients have been blessed with being touched by her complete care, her smile, and remembering their name even ten years after the fact. The culture of the clinic changed when she retired from there but not a day went by when a patient wouldn’t ask about Debbie. “People may forget what we did but they never forget how we made them feel“ Debbie made everyone feel they were most important when they came to Campus Dental or Reflections. She was the best in her field and was priceless in her love for others. Tournaments, promotion and just damn hard work she brought others around her to be their best. From giving with one year in 1990 at Campus she was a big part of the success especially when she stuck it out for thirty years! Thank you Debbie for blessing me with your friendship and assisting me to the provide the best in quality care for my patients . Though you have left us to join your parents and friends in heaven, you still live in the hearts of all of us . You were always there for my family when we needed you. God bless you all with this loss of one of Gods angels . The signs you leave behind will always be cherished!

• It’s been said that the most important time in one’s legacy is that dash that’s placed between the time of birth and death that reflects your life lived. Deb, you fulfilled that time endlessly. You were always everyone’s cheerleader, mentor, but mostly their friend, and so much more to so many. You were one of the strongest women I knew, fought every challenge with grace and integrity and always walked with your head held high even though I saw the tears in your eyes some days. But now is your time to rest my friend in eternal peace, this is not good bye, but til we meet again. I’ll miss you terribly. Our deepest condolences Mike, Leslie and extended family. - Posted by: Sarah Lourenco (Friend) on: Jun 18, 2023

• I was deeply saddened to hear about Debbi's passing. She was not just a receptionist at the dentist's office; she was an extraordinary individual who brought so much joy and positivity to each visit. I can only imagine how deeply her loss is felt by all who had the pleasure of knowing her, especially you, her loved ones. Debbi had a remarkable ability to make everyone feel welcome and at ease. Her warm smile, kind words, and genuine care left a lasting impression on me and many others. She went above and beyond her role, always taking the time to make conversation, offer reassurance, and ensure that every patient felt comfortable. Her dedication and professionalism were truly exceptional. I will forever cherish the memories of Debbi's infectious laughter, her unwavering patience, and her ability to brighten even the most challenging days. She had an extraordinary talent for making people feel seen and valued, and her absence will be deeply felt by all those who had the privilege of knowing her. During this difficult time, I want to extend my deepest condolences to you and everyone who is mourning the loss of Debbi. May you find solace in the memories you shared and the knowledge that she touched the lives of many in a truly special way. My thoughts and prayers are with you all as you navigate through this period of grief and remembrance. With heartfelt sympathy, - Posted by: Denise Williams (Dental patient) on: Jun 18, 2023

• I worked on the CF Annual Golf Tournament with Debbie a number of years ago. Although I didn't know her well, I remember her as a warm and caring person, and that I enjoyed the time we spent working together. - Posted by: Sandy Tapper (volunteered together) on: Jun 17, 2023
