Farewell to Debra Klann by https://padlet.com/kathleen_dorgan/fwmf1rydw07uohnn en-us 2022-11-21 21:43:12 UTC 2025-06-05 13:08:44 UTC hello@padlet.com Never Goodbye https://padlet.com/kathleen_dorgan/fwmf1rydw07uohnn/wish/2399398407 Debra,
You are so missed. You were part of our team for so long, I just always thought we would be working until we were in our 70's together.. LoL... You are an amazing woman and I couldn't be more grateful to have met you and gotten to know you all these many years. Wishing you good health, happiness and joy in your retirement.

I have missed working with you but do enjoy when we are able to connect on text, even if it is only for a moment. You always gave so much to the team, and the Village, and now it is time to focus on giving to YOU and your family!

You were always willing to listen and be a shoulder to lean on. For that, I am honored to call you a friend.

I wish you all the best as you launch the next chapter in your life - retirement and may it be filled with family (especially those grandkids), happiness and joy.

- Chris]]> 2022-11-28 13:02:17 UTC https://padlet.com/kathleen_dorgan/fwmf1rydw07uohnn/wish/2400149751 Oh No, Say it isn't so. https://padlet.com/kathleen_dorgan/fwmf1rydw07uohnn/wish/2400251296 Debra, I remember when I first started you were my backbone for finding everything. When we had our meetings, it was Debra that was responsible for everything from food, to finance to fun. And every one of them was a great success. You amazed me with how much you juggled. And yet, you spent quality time with every teammate. Your warmth and willingness to be helpful and make sure everyone had the best experience is how so many have come to look to you as a mother. You took care of us ahead of your own comfort. You stayed late so many hours even when you were supposed to be resting. There are so many ways you showed acts of selflessness. So I truly wish you the best in your retirement. It is well deserved, and you will be missed greatly.

Whether I've run into you at a meeting, a Tour DaVita rest stop or simply on the email, your bright spirit is always present. I have always known you to sincerely embrace the core values at DaVita. I certainly hope that the kindness you've shared with others through the years comes back to you 100 fold.

Warmly,

Thank you for the joy that you bring not only to this team, but everyday to everyone's life that you touch.... Enjoy your time with your family (especially those grandkids), and most of all take care of yourself... We will continue to keep up and review all of our Hallmark (Christmas) movies!

We will miss you. We will miss your thoughtfulness and your compassion.... your fire and your patience. I remember when I was first hired, you were so helpful and didn't mind all of my questions. I've always been impressed by the amount of detail you remember about each person. Your kindness and loving demeanor will be missed. Enjoy your grandkids!

Love,

I remember being stuck in NYC and calling you in a panic. You took care of me, found me a room (told me not to worry about the price), and a shuttle to and from the hotel. Almost fainted when I saw the room rate. I will never be able to eat sushi again because you always told me what I would like :) We will miss you always, have fun in retirement with Rick and the grandbabies.

Warmest wishes

You are indeed a legend! You have always gone above and beyond in all that you do and have been such an inspiration to me! You always took the time to answer every question and help out with anything needed. Even more you always took the time to get to know us and genuinely make us all feel so cared about. You are indeed a shining star in this life and I will never forget you!!! Thank you for everything you have done for me. You are amazing. I hope this next chapter in your life brings you so much happiness because you deserve it. I do hope you will stay in touch when you can.

On my first day here, and on so many days since, you were always there to help. Even with the long list of things you took care of for us, you always took time to ask how we were doing and to see if there was anything else we needed. Your kindness, upbeat energy, and friendly smile were such a wonderful part of working here. As much as I, and everyone else, will miss you, I'm glad you can now take the time to focus on taking care of yourself. You have certainly earned it. I hope you enjoy your retirement to the fullest!

All the Best!

How will we manage without our backbone? You are leaving a large hole that we won't be able to fill. You have been the one to keep us on an even keel for so many years. We wish you the best in retirement and hope you have many relaxing years ahead

Virginia]]> 2022-11-29 20:51:36 UTC https://padlet.com/kathleen_dorgan/fwmf1rydw07uohnn/wish/2402576808 You put the T in "IT" docrobles https://padlet.com/kathleen_dorgan/fwmf1rydw07uohnn/wish/2402656609 My dearest friend,
From the moment I joined this team and was introduced to you as "the team mom" I have been blown away by your ability to care for this team as only a mom could. You sent us care packages when we were ill, made sure we were squared away logistically and were always there to lend an ear. I will miss our chats and stories. I wish you a peaceful and enjoyable retirement.

Sincerely,
The Ginger Ninja]]> 2022-11-29 22:34:37 UTC https://padlet.com/kathleen_dorgan/fwmf1rydw07uohnn/wish/2402656609 Thank You! https://padlet.com/kathleen_dorgan/fwmf1rydw07uohnn/wish/2405017194 Congratulations on your retirement! Thank you for bringing your whole self to this assignment every day. Thank you for your thoughtfulness and for being an encourager to the 'encouragers'. I'll never forget the little notes you took the time to send via chat or email after Sol Society events or when I made virtual presentations (I STILL get nervous). You were one of my first and best impressions of the ITL&D team, responding to my 1,000 questions (and missed punches) with patience, demonstrating WE CARE towards teammates before it was even a thing. You have made a positive difference and you have finished this part of your journey well. Praying blessings for you as you move into the next exciting stage.

Be well and take care of you!

Thank you so much for always giving your heart. My first memory of you is during the Snappy rollout and working with Deb and Harlan. You made the L&D team great and because of your dedication and hard work always made it special. Wishing you the. best in retirement. Please take time for you you earned it and deserve to rest and do whatever you desire.

I wish you the best as you continue in this next chapter of your life. I miss seeing your smiling face everyday (Tucker and Murphy miss you too)! For 22 years I have had the privilege and honor to call you a fellow teammate and even more importantly a friend. You are an amazing person and I hope you get to do “all the things” in your retirement. Big hugs - Tracy

I'm not jealous at all that you don't have to wake up early and work. You have always been a woman of determination and a "fixer" when things went left. Thank you for your many years of service and for being a sounding board when I needed one.
