Debbie was a charter member of Lakehaven Baptist Church. There she loved helping in the church nursery. She was a woman of great faith, and her favorite saying was, God is good all the time. She was a dedicated manager at Dillard’s Distribution Center for 35 years and received numerous awards and presentations during her career recognizing her hard work. She received the employee of the year award for two consecutive years. She considered her friends at Dillard's as her second family. Debbie loved taking trips with her husband Billy to the mountains, to the beach and even to the Caribbean. She also enjoyed her crossword puzzles, word search and WWE wrestling.
