She loved tending to her flowers and gardens while taking in the beautiful scenes of nature. Among the things that she loved most in this life, her family was at the top of the list. She loved spending time with them. Growing up, Deborah's children can recall their mother making them clothes and clothes for their dolls, she had even made them Barbie furniture as she had worked at a company that produced it earlier in life as well. She was very gifted with crafting and making things with her hands.
