Rest in Peace Debbie👼 It was a pleasure to have you as my French lecturer, such sad news 🙁
I have such great memories of Deborah from work in the IT and as we shared our journey as mothers. I can still see that smile of hers on the first night at the incredible years parenting course that she roped me into, when they announced it was a 10 week course, needless to say she hadn’t said anything about it being 10 weeks.
My deepest condolences Mick, Sam and all of Deborah’s family, may Deborah rest in peace.

The Sheltering Sky – Paul Bowles
Because we don’t know when we will die, we get to think of life as an inexhaustible well. And yet everything happens only a certain number of times, and a very small number really. How many more times will you remember a certain afternoon of your childhood, an afternoon that is so deeply a part of your being that you can’t even conceive of your life without it? Perhaps four, or five times more? Perhaps not even that. How many more times will you watch the full moon rise? Perhaps twenty. And yet it all seems limitless.
RIP Debbie
Sympathies to the family of a valued colleague we have missed
Deepest Sympathy to Mick, Sam and all who knew Deborah. I have nothing but fond memories of Deborah. Rest in Peace.
Very saddened to hear about Debbie’s passing. We shared a house in Galway as students and spent happy times together in London. Debbie remains a special person in my heart and my deepest condolences go Mick and Sam.
