Dear Ashley and family,
I was so sorry to hear of Deb’s passing. Although she is now resting in heaven with
Father God and her savior and friend,,,Jesus. Deb and I had many times of laughing and sharing our lives with each other.
So, I ask that the Lord surround you all with
His presence and Love as only He can.
Sending my Love, Ashley,
Rest In Peace Deb.
Praying for Ashley and your family.
Every time now I think of you Debra its makes me so sad that you are gone. I feel as though our time together was always so quickly gone. It would seem as though there was something more I wanted to ask you or even tell! Our sons where certainly adventurous and at times those seemingly innocent faces we just knew something was to take place without our knowledge (they forgot we had been there and done that, yet knowing those evil little smiles they would certainly try to pull one on us….we always found out! I remember the loud shouts of joy the day you had sold one of your paintings at Gallery out of state. The summer classes with kids learning to tie dye socks. so many wonderful times….. “see ya later, bye dear friend” From our Hearts, the Haff’ Family
