Debbie and I worked together on 3 south at the Lincoln VA . She was a hard worker and always had a smile on her face and knew how to laugh! She was such a big support system to be during my pregnancy, I don’t know how I would of done it without her. She was a dear friend. Prayers to your family.

Deb and I were softball wives long before we became coworkers at the VA. She was such a fun friend and a super LPN. Deb would make up party games that would have us all crying with laughter. And we took wonderful family vacations as a group. She taught “crafts” after hours at the VA. She always joked about how she had all the power tools at her house. A truly great friend and beloved nurse. Rest in peace, Deb.
