She cherished her aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces and nephews, all of whom were a part of a very close and loving family.
A memorial service was held at 11 a.m. Saturday, Aug. 25, 2012, at the Presbyterian Church, Albany Street, Cazenovia.
In lieu of flowers, contributions may be made to “Debbie’s Brain Cancer Research Fund” - Upstate Medical University Foundation, 750 East Adams St.,-CAB 326, Syracuse, NY 13210 or Wanderer’s Rest, Canastota.
The family would like to express their appreciation to Hospice of Central New York for their caring and professional staff.
