Debbie loved to sing! She sang at her friend’s weddings and funerals. She even sang at her own wedding. She loved San Francisco and it loved her! The weather, all her friends she made there for over 20 years. She moved back home to be with her parents and family, to help them as they aged.
One friend said, Debbie was enthusiastic, bubbly, and told you what she thought. I’m good with that trait! She was eager to help a friend or help with a cause, whenever she could. Debbie’s laugh was magical and infectious. She will never be forgotten! Another said, Debbie loved to sing so much, I really think that was her favorite thing. Now she’s truly singing with the angles and praising God. I am glad to know she was recently baptized again and is singing Hallelujah! She was a member of the Baldwin County Democrats, Tabby Cats, Eastern Shore Democrats.
