Debbie Lynn Liebert

She was always full of energy and happiness, and she lived her life with great enthusiasm.

She was a beloved sibling to her two sisters and three brothers. Debbie valued work over higher

education in those days, and she was proud to own her own home by her early 20's.

She was always there for her mom and dad, and was always ready and willing to support her family.

When she left the suburbs of Chicago to get married, and came east to New York, she quickly got a job at newly arrived Starbucks, and before you blinked your eyes she was the first district manager in NYC, opening up stores all over town.

Debbie left that job to be a hands on mom to her two boys, and we all had a great time together.

When the kids were a little older she got her college degrees, and became an elementary school teacher. She impressed her colleagues with her imagination and work ethic. She cared deeply about each student and seemed to know what each one needed. Most of all, Debbie made learning a fun experience for them.

Debbie was generous to a fault and helped people out however and whenever she could. Although she had health issues, she never let them stop her from living her life, and she fought until her last breath to defeat the cancer that had invaded her body. She always thought she could find a way to beat it.

It’s hard to believe she’s gone, we love her and will miss her forever. She left us way too soon.

Debbie is survived by her sons Nathan and Jacob, her husband George, her sisters Cindy and Laura, brothers Fred, John and Jimmy and her mom Barbara. And many more cousins, nieces and nephews, and in-laws.
