Deborah "Debbie" Willis

December 7, 1955 — September 15, 2024

Port Richey

Deborah Willis, a cherished mother and grandmother, passed away on Sunday morning, September 15, 2024 at the age of 68. Debbie, as she was warmly known, was born on December 7, 1955 in New York and lived much of her life there, in Texas, and then in Florida where she spent the final years of her life.

Debbie lived a humble and frugal life and took great pride in caring for her home - inside and out. She was a natural conversationalist and had a knack for keeping loved ones on the phone for hours. She took delight in playing Bingo, finding a bargain, and playing games with her grandchildren. She was a gentle soul with a strong will that kept her fighting through many hard battles. Her family will miss the joy and light she carried in her sparkling blue eyes that glimmered, even in her last days.

Debbie is predeceased by her parents, Richard and Doris Schmidt; and sister, Diane Santos.

Debbie is survived by her son John (Crystal) Willis, and daughter Jenna (Freddie) Morales; grandchildren: Tony, Dominic, Jasmine, Annie, Matty, Jada, and Jae’lyn, and many loved ones who will find comfort in the memories of her thoughtful presence in their lives.
