May Debbie rest in peace and be welcomed by our holy God and may Jesus wrap his arms around her family and friends who will miss her. My sincerest condolences to you all
What a great lady and a big loss to her Edward Jones family. She was well known and took good care of us. Was always buzzing around, making sure everyone was doing what they were supposed to and making events successful. Also a good friend to me personally. She will be missed.
My deepest condolences to Debbie’s family. I knew Debbie from her work at Edward Jones. We knew each other for years. She was so thoughtful, always checking in when she saw me – how were the kids? what’s new? She shined so brightly when talking about her family, who she absolutely adored. She touched a lot of people and will be dearly remembered and sorely missed.
My sincerest condolences to the Hawkins family. It was truly an honor to work with her and that smile. Deb will be missed by many. – Jen Stoudmire
My Deepest Sympathy to Debbie’s family. Debbie was a friend to so many at Edward Jones. I cannot tell you how much i enjoyed working with her and just seeing her smiling face on our campus. She always brightened my day and i held the upmost respect for her. She was always there when i needed assistance with Aramark services for a meeting and came with much needed advice and suggestions. I will miss her face around our campus. And, although she is with God, i will feel her presence in our hallways, cafe’s and campuses. She was loved and will be missed by the Edward Jones family,
I’m so happy I got to know Debbie during the last 7 years at Edward Jones. What an amazing woman! I will miss seeing her smile, joking with her and hearing stories about her family. Prayers to her family. RIP Debbie. We will all miss your secret recipe chocolate chip cookies.
Sincere condolences to Debbie’s loving family. She shared stories about her children and grandchildren every day at work. All of her work family will be missing her bright and funny presence every single day, and we will never forget her.
We were all lucky to know Debbie and work with her. We will keep your family in our thoughts and prayers.
Sweet Debbie, She was such a beautiful person with a beautiful spirit. You will be truly missed. Glad the last time I saw you in HO I was able to get a big hug from you. Praying for your family.
Our sweet and caring Debbie. You were part of our family and you will be dearly missed. Heaven now has another Angel to look over us. Thank you for your love and friendship, you will never be forgotten.
Querida Debbie. Todavia no puedo responer del impacto que me causo recibir la noticia dde to muerte, pero se que ahora estas en Gloria de Dios y que alla descansas de toda preocupacion y afan de este mundo. Me haras mucha falta amiga.
Amiga Debbie. The two hardest things to say in life is hello for the first time and goodbye for the last.
YOUR FRIENDSHIP WAS A GIFT THAT I WILL FOREVER TREASURE
Debbie was the most wonderful person and friend. She always made you feel like you were the only person she had to help organize a meeting or event. The Edward Jones family lost a dear, dear friend – but she will forever be in our hearts. Condolences to her family.
Debbie, May you rest well in our Lord’s arms for eternity.
Debbie and I spent hours at work chatting about her babies, my babies and her grandbabies. More often than not, if I went with a group to the cafe, they knew that if I disappeared, I was hanging with Deb, lost in yet another conversation.
Debbie was an incredibly generous and caring woman, loved by so many. I was blessed to have laughed with her for 15 years. She is sorely missed and will always have a special place in my heart.
Sincere condolences to Roy and Debbie’s families.
Debbie was a dynamo to work with – spunky and precise in my experience. I’m grateful that she brought her personality to work. It brightened my day and made otherwise stressful and chaotic experiences enjoyable and under control. I feel fortunate to have known her.
Condolences to her family and dear friends.
Where should I start? She loved her family first and foremost . They meant everything to her. She always spoke of her husband, kids and of course her grandkids. I had the pleasure of working side by side with Debbie for the last 13 years. She ran circles around everyone. An average day for Debbie was 15000 steps. Debbie was the one that made us successful. She was always on top of everything. I never had to worry when she was there. She will be missed dearly and is irreplaceable. Rest well my friend.
