She spent her summers soaking up the sun and working on her tan. She loved indulging in a good book, often followed by a cozy nap. Shopping was another of her favorite pastimes, where she loved to explore and discover new treasures. She is survived by daughters, Catherine (Andre) Perusse and Elizabeth Turner; beloved grandchildren, Audrey and Harry; brothers, Jack (Judy), Wayne, and Glenn (Carla). She is predeceased by her parents; sister, Colleen; sister-in-law, Donna. In honour of Debbie’s wishes, her family will celebrate her life privately. Flowers and donations are gratefully declined.
