Deb is very dedicated to Rotary and Interact. She joined the Waterville Rotary Club in 2004 and served as the President of the club during 2012-2013.

They also travel to Charleston, San Francisco, and Indianapolis visiting their other four children. She enjoys baking, reading, traveling, and gardening.
Join me in congratulating Deb.
