My thoughts and prayers are with Deb’s family. I worked with Deb for many years. When I was pregnant with my son she made him several blankets that he still uses 8 years later. Deb will be missed by many.

To Deb’s children, grandchildren, and her family. I am so very sorry for your loss! Deb was a very special person! Not only a co-worker of mine at Perrigo, but I also considered Deb to be a good friend of mine for years as we worked at Perrigo in Allegan. I was privileged to have worked both directly and indirectly with Deb for several years there and got to know her pretty well back then! Deb was always a good listener and a friend to me. She will be greatly and sadly missed!! R.I.P. now dear Deb. ❤️
