Debbie touched the lives of many with her kindness and warm spirit. She had a passion for life and enjoyed golfing, dancing, boating, and playing Texas Hold 'Em. She loved Florida life, as well as riding motorcycles and spending time with her beloved friends and family. She never met a stranger and loved fiercely—especially her grandchildren, who meant the world to her.
Left to cherish Debbie’s memory are her children, Nicole Hammersley, Cynthia Dawes (Timothy Underwood), and Richard Frederick, Jr.; grandchildren, Hannah, Michael, Evelyn, Dakota, Cassidy, Nolan, Lila, TJ, and Richard James, Jr.; great-grandchildren, Jamie and Valerie; siblings, Sheri Mohorcic (Charles Solomon), Tim (Pam) Anderson, and Tommy (Dee) Anderson; along with many nieces, nephews, extended family members, and friends. In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her brother, Chester, Jr., and her sister, Linda.
The family will welcome friends to celebrate Debbie’s life on Monday, March 10, 2025, at Hope Church, 1905 Pearl Road, Brunswick, Ohio. Guests may pay their respects beginning at 1:30 pm, with a Celebration of Life service beginning at 2:00 pm.
Debbie’s legacy of love, laughter, and kindness will live on in the hearts of those who knew her. Please share condolences with Debbie’s family on her tribute page at www.waitefuneralhome.com.
