Deborah had a very special gift of caring for and bonding with the older sisters in the Congregation. Her concern for them was ever evident, even in our last phone conversation when she expressed concern for a sister she had been unable to contact. I am so proud and privileged to have spent many years serving Jehovah with Debbie. She loved her family and was always busy about the business of caring for them in one way or another. I’m sure her family loved her dearly, too. May your memories serve as both a comfort and a blessing.

My condolences to Deborah Kelly''s Family. My memory I like to share. Is when Deborah and Daughter Dee Dee came to visit me in Detroit. They stayed for the weekend and we went to the District Convention at the Pontiac Silverdome. We had a spiritual blast. We loved each other's company. It will not be long before we see Deborah's smiling face again in Gods paradise. There will be no more tears and death will be no more. We just need to make it there to share that Paradise with her. She will be glad to see us all.
