Having worked so closely with Deborah for many years it's difficult to comprehend that she is no longer with us. Such a sad loss. All I can do is to add to those who have so beautifully expressed how much she meant to them. Deborah was conscientious, hard-working, willing to help and perhaps most of all, trustworthy. She was a great listener and had that rare ability to act professionally at all times.She had a great sense of humour and was incredibly supportive of her colleagues. We often spoke about our families and although I never met her family I felt I knew them a little and my sympathies and prayers are with you during this awful time of loss.
