Debbie was preceded in death by her beloved mother Betty A. Barker, adoring father Russell F. Barker, brother Patrick Barker and her sisters-in-law Jane Faust and Cheryl Miconi.

Debbie was an extraordinary Momma and loving Mamaw. She was active in helping her community and supporting any crazy idea her girls had. She was a meme queen, a lipsense model, and president of the Bruno Mars fan club. She loved road trips and nothing more than hearing the ocean waves crashing. She was a crafter and loved putting her touch on making old things new again. She spent the majority of her life caring for others and was always performing selfless random acts of kindness throughout her life. Her smile was infectious and always lit up the room. Her sassy attitude and enormous heart were her trademarks. Debbie will be missed by many and forever loved by anyone who crossed her path.
She will be cremated and the family will announce a Celebration of life at a later time.
