"I just learned of Deb's passing. In respect to her privacy, all I'll say is I helped tend to her, and she helped keep me in line. In my line of work, when someone passes and it is relayed by word of mouth through our industry--in Deb's case, across entire companies--that tells you how much they meant to their caregivers. She was an inspiration to us, and to those like her. I'm truly going to miss her. God bless."
In loving memory of
Debra Ann Allen
