Dear aunt, cousin, and friend.
Deborah was a generous and loving person who always found the good in everyone. She was quirky and funny and strong in faith. She was an avid animal lover and advocate and always cared for wildlife including the helpless animals her cats would catch! She loved knitting, crocheting, and handiwork and will be missed by all whom had the pleasure to have known her.
Friends may visit on Monday, September 19, 2016 from noon until time of service at 2 p.m. at Alexander-White-Mullen Funeral Home in St. Ann, MO. Interment at Mt. Lebanon Cemetery.
