Debbie passed away on Wednesday night at 8:17pm surrounded by her family and a couple of friends. She had been in great pain that day and of course a long time before that, but passed away peacefully "with a smile on her face" they said. She fought this fight so long and so hard and felt that on Wednesday morning, she was ready to be in the hands of her precious Lord.
Please pray for the entire Ferreira Family and extended family and friends who miss her so very much. Gene and Tina (Mom and Dad) appreciate all of the heartfelt prayers and love you have shown Deb during her hards times and all through her life. Please pray that we would all be inspired by Deb's genuine courage fighting so hard and so long.
There is a tentative date of September 19th, Saturday for a "Celebration of her Life". Her sister Michelle will keep us informed and I will update here. Deb wanted no mourning for her passing, but rather a happiness and celebration of a Mass on Saturday at the church followed by a lot of gathering and kids running around at a park nearby.
