Rob, Carole, Bobby, deb's off to heaven to wait for us & get the place ready and coffee brewing !! We are left so many wonderful memories of her.I don't think i ever ran into her out and about that she did not greet all she met with a greeting and a smile. Her family was her world , you could tell ,She knew what the important things in life are.I believe the rest of us were blessed to be receivers of that great smile on any and every occasion she was around. She was so tiny ,when you hugged her,you could of just picked her up,and took her right with you!!! She was an example for all of us,and I hope we always remember that so WE always smile when she enters our thoughts. Rob you've lost the love of your life but what great memories you will always keep IN YOUR HEART.we love you all. Aunt Jenni
