Honoring Debra's Legacy of Love and Dedication

It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Debra Lai on 12/15/2024. Deb was an extraordinary woman whose life was filled with love, compassion, and dedication to excellence in whatever she did. Deb’s journey came to an end after a valiant fight against a brain infection and its complications. Surrounded by her family and loved ones, Deb passed peacefully, leaving behind a legacy that touched the lives of so many.

Deb was a cherished friend, mentor, sister, daughter, and surgeon. She was a beacon of light and strength to everyone who had the privilege of knowing her. Her warmth, intelligence, and care knew no bounds, and she left an indelible mark on the hearts of those she met. Her fiancé, family, and close friends are heartbroken by this immeasurable loss, as they navigate life without the person who brought so much love and joy into their worlds.

As her loved ones prepare to honor Debra’s memory, we are reaching out to her extended community for support. We hope to alleviate some of the financial burden of end-of-life care and funeral arrangements during this devastating time.

Any contribution, no matter how small, will go directly towards covering the costs of funeral arrangements and related expenses.
