The family would like to thank everyone who gave of their time, energy, resources and finances that made Deb's benefit a success. The money raised on the evening in March, went to offset various medical expenses, but more than that - your gifts and presence gave Deb hope. That hope gave Deb more time with her family, more hugs with her grandchildren and more snuggles with her pets. That hope allowed her to share her testimony; to lead and encourage those around her back to the Lord. That hope changed lives. For those reasons and more, mere words cannot express the gratitude this family has for "Team Debbie".
