A precious lady died this week, December 31st. A pretty lady, with dimples & a smile:)
Debbie was only 56, too young to die.
She had struggled with cancer.<\/p>\n
I haven’t seen her in years, or her husband Danny, but I can’t think of a sweeter couple or dearer folks. (We attended church together for many years)<\/p>\n
Danny, & Debbie were probably kinfolks somewhere down the line. They both hailed from a tiny community in NC, the Tar Heel\/Dublin area in Bladen County, where my daddy’s people are from.<\/p>\n
Debbie became a Christian counselor after her two children, Dana & Brantley, were grown; a noble feat. I was impressed she went back to college & received her degree, to minister–helping those in need.
A Debbie thing:)<\/p>\n
She’s another one of those dear ones who lived life well.
Thank you, Debbie, for being a hero to so many.
May you rejoice with the angels (including Brenda Jones & Grace Peacock) till I see you again.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
