There are no words that I can say to tell everyone how amazing Debbie was to my family and I. 23 years ago she interviewed me for the job at Edwards. The 1st thing I noticed was her last name was the same as mine (Sherman) The interview was like a son and his mom hanging out, and catching up like old friends. When the interview was over I said “ well mom do I have the job?! ” She laughed and said “yes son I think you do”. I would come into work and say Hi mom and all the other employees would look at us in disbelief. Working with her didn’t feel like work, it felt like we were apart of a family. She was kind, loving, honest, and amazing person. I will miss her. Thank you Debbie for your friendship, and your love. My love and prayers to the family.

Love and miss you mom.

You’re son

Debbie was one of my first bosses when Regal was still Edwards Cinemas. She ran a tight ship but with the biggest of hearts. WhenI left Edwards I always knew if I needed a job Debbie would have my back and she did and I Will always be great full for the hand up when I was down. I have nothing but pleasant memories and prayers for eternal rest, love you Debbie ❤️ God Bless

I am saddened to hear about Debbie. Debbie was my first boss. She was an amazing boss and even more of an amazing mentor. May she rest in peace. Sending condolences to her family!

in honor of Debra.

Debbie was my moms boss at parkway plaza regal. She quickly became family and also became a role model and like a grandparent to me. Every time I saw Debbie she’d have the biggest smile on her face and always lit up a room. As I got older she’d always joke about taking me on her trips with her and how her grandson and I would be good friends. Debbie will always have a special place in my heart and I’m so sorry to all her friends and family for their loss she was a beautiful soul who is now a beautiful angel watching over everyone

First met Debbie at Yokohama High School, Japan January 1968 - June 1969. We met again in Kailua Hawaii 1976. We both worked at Kaneohe Marine base - I worked at NUC/NOSC- she was at base supply. We would meet up for lunch. We both had babies around same time - Alan used my Malias bassinet 👶🏻. I loved following her travel stories- with her sister Kathy and Yo-Hi friends. Though we didn’t see each other often - it always felt like no time had past!
Enjoy your new travels - love you forever

Debbie was one of my dearest friends. We met during our senior year of high school in Yokohama, Japan and have stayed in touch for over 50 years. We talked often and shared our happy moments and also our difficult times with each other.
We enjoyed traveling together over the years along with other YoHi pals. There were so many belly laughs and fun conversations! Treasured memories. I will miss Debbie so much. I send much love and condolences to Debbie's family. A special friend gone too soon.

Debbie has been my friend since I was 15 years old. We met in High School in Yokohama,Japan. Debbie lived across the street from me on Skyline Drive. We use to have Walkie Talkies to talk to each other. We would walk around Negishi Heights, on opposite sides of the streets, with our Walkie Talkies at 8 pm when Fun Dial came on the radio. We would listen to music and talk. We thought we were so cool.
Later, when we got back to the States, Debbie and I took trips together with other Yo-Hians every few years to Bucket List destinations like Mt. Rushmore, New Orleans, and Graceland to name a few. We had a trip planned for October. Debbie and I were in touch all the time. That I can no longer call on my Pal for anything breaks my heart.
Debbie was a true and loyal friend. She was generous, kind, fair, funny, smart, and incredibly unique. I will miss her always and my life will never be the same without her.
My sincere condolences go out to all her Family and Friends.
