Debbie was like a sister to us. I have know her from the time she was a little girl coming down to “Aunt Yole’s ” house, and then she came to work for us at the pizza business. Debbie was always a go getter! She started out the way most employees do a cook. And quickly rose to manager position. Soon she became the manager of the St Clairsville store and then set her sites on owning her own store..I will always be proud to know Debbie.When she set her sites on something she got it…. Her kind heart was always helping others. We will always Love and miss her!
