, Albany, NY 12206. “In honor of our sister Deb who passed away suddenly early this morning, my brother and I would like to share some of our loving thoughts about her with you. From birth, Deb was born with a genetic chromosomal condition called Turner’s Syndrome, which presented her with multiple medical challenges.

For her entire life she persevered through major surgeries, including kidney reconstruction and severe spinal curvature, and other orthopedic problems. Throughout all of these circumstances, she maintained a positive attitude and overcame many obstacles, never wavering from her ultimate goals in life. She never backed down from a challenge.

In spite of her pint-sized stature, her strength was remarkable and a constant inspiration to us and to others that knew her. Where others would have given up long before, Debbie never faltered. After an arduous journey through life, she is at peace and with our loving parents in heaven.

God bless you Deb and rest in peace. You will forever be in our hearts”.
