She is survived by her husband, Tom, and her three children, Allison, Tommy, and Lauren, along with their spouses Andrew, Courtney, and David, respectively. The light of her life were her four grandchildren, Theodore, Jackson, Penelope, and Annika. Debbie taught at the Kalamazoo Christian Schools for almost 40 years, where she taught nearly 1,000 children to love books and each other.
