Deborah Louise Smith

Debbie is preceded in death by her mother, Rosaline Robert and her father, Elbert Robert.

Debbie is survived by her loving and devoted husband of 44 years, Gregory “Greg” Smith; her sister, Diana Starr; her brother, Wallace (Doris) Lockey; her sister, Gwen (Bobby) Flowers; her brother, Richard (Patricia) Robert; and her sister, Tina (Richard) Duncan. She also leaves behind many cousins, nieces, and nephews.

Debbie was born on July 16, 1958 in Houston, Texas to Elbert Robert and Rosaline Robert. She attended Galena Park High School. After completing her studies, Debbie enlisted and proudly served in the United States Navy. Following her honorable service in the military, Debbie accepted a position at Stiles Truck Lines in Pasadena, Texas and was a dedicated employee for many years. Debbie always had a smile on her face that brightened the lives of others. She was a kind and gentle person and all that knew her loved her. She had a zest for life and enjoyed spending her time listening to Christian music, visiting with friends at the American Legion Hall, and trying her luck at the casinos with her husband, Greg. Debbie held a special fondness for her “backyard birds” and took great care to ensure they all had fresh and ample water, seeds, and nectar each day. She will be deeply missed, but never forgotten.
