Debbie was our Whoopi Goldberg - funny, smart, unafraid, independent, confident, honest.... so honest I admit I had my feelings hurt many times by her.... but she was a huge part of my growing up life... from trying to talk me into trying out for cheerleader... really?.... that was so not me... to arguing with me about what is profit and what is investment.... to discussing the shape of my son's head...to explaining the birds and the bees at slumber parties.... she was one of a kind.....

Debbie's dad was a veternarian, and they built a house one mile west of our farm on East 61st
Street, where Susan Spoon and her family later lived.
I met her at Dick Kirkland's house 1/4 mile west of hers and found her to be very cute and sweet and friendly.
The first impression was correct, and I always considered her a friend.
We each married our high school sweethearts,my 41St anniversary will be June 21st.
I am so sad to hear of her passing.
