My condolences to Louie and family. I was so sad when I heard of Debbie’s passing. She was such a beautiful woman and a blessing to all who knew her. I cherish the days when we were so young and just having our first babies… God promises to comfort those who mourn, I hope you find some measure of comfort in all the years and memories you share. Much love, Jean (Iacovelli) DiVincentis

So Sad to read of Debra's passing... I first met her when she moved to Milford when we were in junior high. She was beautiful and so nice... She fell in love young and quickly but it was an everlasting love with Lou that created a beautiful family... My sincere condolences to her husband, children, grandchildren and friends. RIP Debra...

As so many others have said here, if you could call Debbie your friend then your life was richer because of it. As Simon's (our horse) beloved caregiver, the barn was a markedly happier place when Debbie was here. Even on days when I know she was physically hurting she always wore that beautiful smile, never a complaint. Simon loved her and would just come to life when he saw Debbie coming to see him. She made sure he was always up to date on his shots, arranging for vet visits and, of course, his monthly pedicure. She and Louie would come over to assist the vet and the farrier when he had his appointments as Simon could be a handful at times. Debbie would talk softly to him as he was being attended to as he knew that no harm would come to him with her around. Simon is a 1600 pound draft horse and he loves little children and is very gentle around them. Debbie loved to bring her grandkids over for them to visit with Simon and hang out at the barn for awhile. We will miss her immensely, Tom and Jane Killoren, and Simon

This is a time of opposing emotions. While it is comforting to know that Debra is finally pain free and at peace, you who are left behind feel such sadness and loss. Time, faith, and family will support you in the time to come, Louie. I am sending my deepest condolences to you and your family.

I cannot grasp this. Totally stunned. Debbie loved our Lord God and she was one of the most beautiful people I know. She was my best friend on Senate road back in the 70’s. She was such a positive person always telling me to trust the Lord. She has def earned her wings. 💕
Karen


Louie and the whole Medina Family, Our hearts go out to you and we are praying for all of you during this difficult time. We had the priviledge of knowing Debbie from our time at Solid Rock. She was always a very kind and caring person. May you take comfort in knowing that she is safely home with her Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, and you will see her again. 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18.
Tom and Deb Kortschinsky and Family


I knew Debbie for many years. She actually led me to my first Baptist Church in Milford. When I think of her I always remember that gift that she gave Me. May her family find peace knowing that she is in the arms of her Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

Debbie was a special woman. She gave so much of herself to those who had the privilege of knowing her. She will be greatly missed. I'm praying for comfort from above, Louie, at this most difficult time...and for all of your family amd friends who are hurting right now. It is a bittersweet, but temporary parting. Take comfort in the fact that Debbie is in the presence of her Savior. This is only "Good-bye for now."
Lynn Konowitz


Deb was my truest friend of all time. She knew my ugliest and darkest secrets and not once ever judged me. Supported every decision I ever made in life and knew she could trust me as much I trusted her. I loved her from the day we met to this very day . My only wish is that I could of said goodbye to tell her that I loved her so much. She was my “family” when I had no one and was that for many other lost souls on this earth: see you on the other side sister . 😘 I love you Deb.
