I worked with Deb at Muskegon High School, and she was always pleasant, kind, and helpful. Sending to condolences to the family.
My heart was so shattered to hear of your passing. My heart all of a sudden filled back up with happiness to know that Heaven was receiving a true angel. Your smile was always present and you treated the kids in the school as if they were your own. When I graduated I told you I would come back and see you and I did just that. You will be missed and your kind spirit will live here on earth. Look out heaven here comes the sweetest angel you will ever have!!!! Rest well your job here is done WELL DONE!!!!
Dear Dan and Family,
I have always felt so blessed to have Dan and Debbie as friends. I always felt refreshed in my spiritual life after being together and sharing what was going on in our lives and our feelings and beliefs regarding the Lord and what was going on in the world we live in. We were always on the same page, and I loved that! Debbie was definitely a very kind and sweet wife, mother, grandmother, and friend to so many! I will miss Debbie very much, but I am comforted knowing she is with the Lord and happier than anyone of us could ever imagine. I'd like to quickly tell Sara and Stacey what wonderful and loving daughters you are and always have been! Thank you so much for keeping us posted through "Prayers for Debbie". Dan, my prayers will continue for you and your family that you will have peace in the upcoming days and weeks ahead. Mary Lumpp
