Debra was born 10/17/1958 in Nyack, NY to father, Raymond Underwood of Petal, MS and
Mother, Ann Bednar (deceased).
She is survived by daughters, Simone Hellings, Jillian Tallman, Tatiana Perez; leaving behind a legacy of 5 grandchildren, Claudia, Akai, Jace, Jaxon, Khaleesi; and lovingly remembered by her great grandchildren Alessia, Nelliel, Skyla.
Debra had a larger than life personality. She was a driving force whose determination and resilience was admired by many. She cared heavily for those that she loved, related to or chosen family. To know her was to know what the word special truly means. Her impact will stay with every soul who had crossed her path forever. Debra, Debbie, Deb, Mom, Grandma, Aunt, Daughter, Friend, Confidant; all of her titles will never compare to what they really meant to those who spoke them. She will whole-heartedly be missed and we are forever grateful to have been part of her life.
A private celebration of her life will be held in her current residence.
Special thanks to everyone who has been supportive during this time.
