"Love Never Fails"

Debbie personified those words, armed with a smile and an, "I'm ok, you ok?" she loved without reservation. Her bubbly laugh and Minnie Mouse voice never failed to bring joy to all around her. She touched an innumerable amount of lives over the course of her short one, but each person always knew they were loved.
