I am so, so sorry for your loss. No words can take away the grief that you are going through at this time. Having just lost a daughter last year, I do understand. Debbie was there for me at that time with kind words.
The three of you have lost a wonderful wife, and mother. I have lost a special sister.
We had many good times growing up. I don’t think there is enough room here to tell about the memories and special moments.
Debbie knew she was loved by all who knew her. She had a love for life and expressed this through her busy travel agenda, her love for horses growing up, her grandchildren, and her family.
She will certainly be missed and I am sure we will see her again. Right now she is dancing with Angels.
Until we see each other again......your sister Ellen, Love and miss you!!

Rest In Peace Great Aunt Debbie. I will always remember you. You were such a special person to many. I remember coming up to Mount Forest to visit the family and us going out for dinner and Great Aunt Debbie joking around with everyone and having a good time. Great Aunt Debbie you will be sadly missed by everyone that you touched the hearts of. Say hi to Grandpa Casey for us. We will never forget you. Rest easy Great Aunt Debbie.
Love Allie

I feel so sorry for your loss. As Janie said on this tribute wall, Debbie was a special person. In so many ways.
She certainly knew grief at a young age. She had some very rough times in those early days as well. But she never used any of that as an excuse or a cause for weakness. She went on to be a great wife/soulmate to Larry, great Mother and Grandmother to the kids. Made sure all was right.
My Mom (Aunt Sis as Randy and Debbie called her) took Debbie in under her wing when Debbie’s Mom Donnie passed away. As a result, I grew up with Debbie. She was there when my Dad died. We helped each other through those years creating a special bond. I was with her for many firsts including her first car accident when she showed what could happen to a new Coupe de Ville when put in the path of oncoming pick-up…
She is now with family that she hasn't seen in a long, long time. That makes me smile.

Debbie was a true treasure in many ways. Her family came first. My husband Randy who died two years ago was basically Debbie's brother. They grew up together. As adults we all met at Thanksgiving, Christmas, Easter and even in between.She was a pleasure to visit with and we all shared some beautiful family memories.Our collective group of children rounded out the occasions. We will never forget you Debbie and my hopes are that you and Randy are now visiting where we will all meet again.
With Love and Sorrow.....Jane (Arkell)

I first met her at 16, before even meeting Dave.
As my boss, she immediately scared the crap out of me, but it wasn't long before I was sticking old cheeseburgers in her pockets, laughing with her on the floor and poking her every time I walked by. She turned from boss, to friend, to mother in law, and back to friend. She always joked with me that I was never getting rid of her. ❤
She kept the circle that really knew her very small and I feel privileged to be a part of that.
She loved my kids fiercely and like they were her own. My kids are so lucky to have lived with her, and to really get to know her. Luke always had her in the stands, yelling to 'get the puck' and Megan always had someone that loved all the same crafts as she did.
She was adventurous, kind, loyal, protective and the best baker I knew.
Love you Deb and gonna miss you like crazy.
Amanda

So sorry to learn of the passing of Debbie, sending my Condolences to Larry and her family.
I will always remember my cousin riding her horse in Palmerston when we were kids, and our short visits through the McDonalds drive thru window in our adult years.
