My prayers go out to your family. Debbie and I attended school together and also we worked for AT&T together as long distant operators. I enjoyed visitng with Debbie while working with her. We worked such a wide range of hours as operators and would sit and visit to pass the time. We would talk about our kids,of old Lincoln High days and laugh about all the crazies we would get on the phone late at night. What a beautiful soul she was. Again my thoughts and prayers are with you all.
