Dear Friends and Family,

As we approach another year of remembering our beloved Debbie through the Debra J. Roth Family and Friends Tribute Scholarship, we are filled with gratitude and purpose. Your continued support has made an incredible impact, with last year’s campaign raising nearly $22,000 to support eight remarkable scholars. This success is a testament to Debbie’s enduring legacy and our community’s generosity.

Recently, Barbara attended the JVS SoCal Scholarship Awards Ceremony in Los Angeles, and it was truly moving. Meeting the recipients and seeing how our donations are making a real difference brought home the impact of this program. It’s exactly what Debbie would have wanted – supporting ambitious young people in pursuing their dreams.

As we find ourselves in a crazy and tumultuous year, we are reminded that education can be a unifying force. This scholarship program offers a bipartisan way to make a meaningful difference in young people’s lives. Your contributions are having a tangible, visible impact.

Debbie, as many of you know, was a brilliant lawyer who graduated from Stanford. She was dedicated to her career while raising two incredible daughters – now a veterinarian and an independent filmmaker. Debbie always emphasized the value of education, a legacy that lives on through this scholarship.

Thank you for taking the time to read this letter and for being part of our extended family. Your kindness and support mean the world to us, and I know Debbie would be deeply touched by the way her memory continues to inspire and create opportunities for others.

With love and gratitude,

Barbara and Ron Lang
