Debbie’s love and kindness was unmatched. These traits were very well known by anyone lucky enough to know her. She shared a very special bond with her dear grandson Jamey Garrant who had lived with her and stayed by her side until the very end. Their bond was unbreakable and filled with joy. The many cherished moments for us all will live on in all of our hearts forever.

She also leaves behind countless friends who she made feel like family. Again, her love and kindness were truly unmatched.

Debbie was a woman who continuously gave without ever expecting anything in return. She found joy in the simple pleasures of life — being with family and friends, cooking and sharing up comfort, cherishing old stories, listening to music, and like her big sister Angie, kicking back in her recliner with a Hallmark movie. Also, she had a beautiful God-given voice when she sang. Her greatest gift was the way she made everyone feel.

A visitation will be held on Thursday, April 16, 2026, from 4:00 PM to 6:00 PM at Brown Funeral Home in Plattsburgh, NY. A funeral service will follow with Father Bill Edwards officiating. Inurnment will take place on Friday, April 17, 2026 at 2:00 p.m. at St. Peter's Cemetery.

A Celebration of Life will be held afterwards, starting at 6:30 p.m. at the Plattsburgh VFW at 125 Boynton Avenue, Plattsburgh, New York.

In honor of Debbie’s generous spirit, donations may be made out to her family.

She was deeply loved and will be missed beyond words.
