Prayers for strength and peace during this difficult time and always. I met Deb years ago at Principal. She always had a smile and always talked of her kids. She left us way to soon, but she made a heck of an impact on many people with her many kind actions. She will be missed. But know she will always be with you, guiding you, listening and talking to you from above.
Ps I can totally hear and see Deb making the yogurt comment. What a gift of humor she had.
My heart breaks for the entire family of Debbie Banks. Prayers to you all.
Debbie was loved deeply. She will be missed but never forgotten. Im so sorry for your deep grief and the loss of your father, grandfather Bill. My condolences.
My heart continues to ache for Debbie and her family. I have such wonderful memories that began with all the sleep overs in grade school. You were always a blast to hang with! No doubt you touched many people with your kind heart....now you will forever live in ours! May God give you and your family comfort.
I’ve known Debbie from grade school all the way up through high school. Her smile has always been there. My interests weren’t the same in HS as Deb’s so we didn’t see a lot of each other, but when we did, her smile was always there.
Deb always has a way of making one feel included. I was frankly quite surprised to get a FB request from Debbie, although I don’t really know why. Once I friended her, I started getting other friend requests from other HS peeps. Deb has always been a trend setter!
I can’t begin to tell you how many times I’ve seen Debbie’s words of encouragement or prayers on FB for someone. I can’t. There are just that many. I think we all live vicariously through our friends FB vaca photos, & soak up their shared family stories; however, I think I’m going to miss Deb’s heartfelt words popping up on random FB feeds the most. Knowing how much Deb’s heart was pulling for random strangers; no one is surprised by this. Debbie has truly touched soooo many lives. It goes without saying how much she loves, and is loved, by her family and friends.
Thank you for counting me as your friend, Debbie. I look forward to seeing you when we meet again. Leann Jones Miller
So, it’s not often in this day and age to meet your mom’s boss at Village Inn for coffee. I was an adult living on my own and mom had so many good things to say about her boss Debbie. Figured ‘why not’. Debbie is so much fun. Not only did my mom like and respect her as a boss, she was just down to earth and approachable. She encouraged me in weight loss, gave me clothes, and was just a good and fun friend. I am devastated to hear of her condition, and I’m heartbroken for her sisters, kids, and grandkids. She loved to talk and brag on all of you - she loved you dearly. I am so glad I met Debbie!
I continue to pray for Debbie and your entire family. I can’t imagine what she and you all are going through. She is a special lady with a great sense of humor. It was years ago that we worked together, but I remember how much she loved talking about you all.
Ps I can totally hear and see Deb making the yogurt comment. What a gift of humor she had.
