Deborah graduated from Hillwood High School on August 2, 1974. She graduated from Tennessee State University with a Bachelor of Science in Biology degree on August 11, 1979.
As a youth, Deborah made a Christian commitment to the teachings of Jesus Christ and joyfully attended the Jefferson Street Missionary Baptist Church. Deborah taught Sunday school and sung in the choir. In addition to spending time with her children and grandchildren, her cherished pastime was studying God’s word.
Deborah devoted her professional career to medical billing. She took pride in her work product and was a dedicated employee. Deborah was no stranger to hard work. While working full time, she also worked part time at the Tennessean for eighteen years.
By God’s grace, Deborah was a twenty-three-year cancer survivor.
Deborah is preceded in death by her mother Willerdean Barnes and her brother Steve Holder.
Among those left to rejoice in her love and celebrate her life are her loving children, Paetria Patrice (Christopher) Morgan, Patrica Penisha (Jason) Hand, and Tony Eugene Pollard, Jr; grandchildren, Gianna Morgan, Judah Morgan, J’Ki Hand, J’Kira Hand, and Ariana Hand; her siblings, Carrietta McBride, Elaine (Robert) Gift, Diane Watson, Charles (Lena) Hayes, Helen Ervin, Kathy Bell, David (Angel) Hayes, Jacqueline Walker, and Karl Hayes.
