Debbie Decker and her daughter Jaki Walters were on their way home from a Mother/Daughter weekend in Pensacola celebrating Debbie's birthday and were involved in a terrible car accident.  Both of them lost their lives.  My brother is dealing with the loss of both his mother and his sister and is solely responsible for his mother's arrangements both financially and logistically.  They have been living in the Nashville area for many years but he is planning to have her memorial in her hometown where she grew up in Illinois.  Please help me to help my brother by making a donation to help lessen the financial burden during this devastating time.  He, his mom and sister were very close and they were help and support for one another through a lot of difficult times.  These funds will go to Dan Pulaski to assist him with any expenses associated with her arrangements. 

Debbie married my Dad when I was around 2 years old.  She and my Dad had my brother Dan and we were a family for many years.  Even after the marriage failed, she always treated me like her daughter.  We've kept in touch throughout our whole lives and visited each other when we could.  I'm grateful that my daughter and I were able to visit her and Jaki last October and stay a few nights with Debbie.  She and Jaki were both such great people.   Debbie was never afraid to be silly and have fun!  Her laughter was infectious!  I will cherish all of my memories of them both.   

If you have any pictures or stories you'd like to share, please feel free to do so!  I know it means a lot to Dan to know how loved his mom and sister were and all the lives they have touched.  

*There is also a GoFundMe page set up for the benefit of Jaki's husband James Walters if you would like to also support him.
